If the robot is in a pot bunker the best shot may be backwards. Is the robot's software so refined to make that judgement? On every single pot bunker in the world... or heck, on a course that has 200 pot bunkers?
How well can you program the robot?

Personally, I think we have a lot of GPS, optics, data storage, and angle programming available for our use, and there are a finite number of golf courses. I wouldn't think this would be a problem.
