No. 18 at Harbour Town Golf Links

Where: Hilton Head Island, S.C.
Tournament: RBC Heritage
Tournament yardage: 472 yards
Par: 4
Architect: Pete Dye (Jack Nicklaus was a consultant)
Buzz: The hole is beautiful on television each year, with a fairway that juts into Calibogue Sound and the famed lighthouse in the marina beyond the green. The camera angle from behind the tee as the player tees off is well known to any serious PGA Tour fan.

And the hole is even more gorgeous in person.

Standing on the tee, it looks like one of the most difficult tee shots imaginable, with marsh grasses rising from all that water. But the landing area is actually quite generous, with almost 90 yards of turf side to side. Then it’s another carry over water for the approach, stretching many amateurs to take a crack with a fairway wood or hybrid to a small green perched at the water’s edge.
