PEBBLE BEACH LINKS (CALIFORNIA, USA)
106-yard, 7th hole
One of the most iconic holes in golf, the diminutive downhiller bares its teeth in the wind.
Plunging from an elevated tee down to a green perched just above the crashing waves of Monterey Bay, the 7th hole can demand any club from a lob wedge to a 3-iron depending on the conditions.
Sam Snead once used a putter rather than hit his ball into the wind. In the 1992 US Open, eventual winner Tom Kite birdied the hole after hitting a 6-iron from the tee and chipping in from beside the green.
