That green is not associated with that fairway - is it?
I would not have thought so.
That green was originally for a short driveable par 4, and the tee for the fairway was back and to the right.
I doubt they have changed that.
But I have no idea, as I have found very little info. on this project.
Seems that the fairway is associated with the green. Following is a picture from Mackenzie & Ebert's Twitter account (

It is the 9th hole and looks to play about 360ish yards as the crow flies. Presumably the design intent is to drive up the left side of the fairway ad then carry the second shot across the massive bunker. I assume that the green site is the old 8th green site. Looks like maintaining the massive bunker will be interesting.
The 10th is a par 3 that goes inland , with the tee beyond the 9th green and a bit right. Interestingly the new 8th and 11th are both par 5's and run side by side in the same direction, with the 9th running the opposite direction along the cliffs. I imagine that the par 5's will play into the prevailing wind.
Oh, and the fee appears to be 120 quid.
