Often it is a single hole that stands out most in the memory when golfers look back fondly at their favourite golf courses, and it\u2019s probably fair to say holes featuring island greens regularly fall into the \u201csignature hole\u201d category<\/a>. Of course, \u201cisland greens\u201d are mostly not really on islands in the strictest sense of the word, but surrounded by water and with narrow walkways often being the only bit of land connecting the greens to the main body of land the courses in question are set upon, we\u2019ll let that slide.<\/p>\n

TPC Sawgrass, Stadium Course – Hole 17<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]It would almost be rude to kick this list off with any other hole than the most famous of all the island greens in golf: the par 3 17th at TPC Sawgrass.

The 17th at Sawgrass may only measure 137 yards and during The Players Championship<\/a> it often plays even shorter than that, but it has the ability to strike fear into even the world\u2019s best players, thanks in large part to the wind that swirls around the green.

Both the Pines and the Dunes Courses weave their way through forests of mature umbrella pines and while water hazards are commonplace throughout all 36 holes, it is certainly most prominent on the par 4 18th hole on the Dunes Course.[\/vc_column_text][image_with_animation image_url=”32425″ animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”center” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][vc_column_text]This challenging par 4 measures around 400 yards from the back tees so it\u2019s not overly long, but once in play off the tee, golfers must strike their approach shots straight and true in order to find the island green safely. How do you make an island green more intimidating? Place it within view of the countless golfers enjoying a drink or two on the clubhouse terrace having already finished their rounds.

PGA West, Stadium Course \u2013 Hole 17<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Another 17th hole, another par 3, and another Pete Dye design. You\u2019d be forgiven for thinking that legendary designer Pete Dye was simply up to his old tricks at PGA West when he designed the Stadium Course and another island green par 3, but fearing both the original and duplicate holes would lose their \u201cuniqueness\u201d, he was actually quite reluctant to bow to requests from PGA Tour commissioner Deane Beman, and PGA West\u2019s developers Ernie Vossler and Joe Walser.[\/vc_column_text][image_with_animation image_url=”32416″ animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”center” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][vc_column_text]After eventually agreeing, Dye made sure that while the two holes were aesthetically similar, the challenge presented to the golfer was very different indeed. He named the penultimate hole here \u201cAlcatraz\u201d and it\u2019s easy to see why considering how hard it is to escape with a par. This demanding par 3 is 30 yards longer than the 17th at Sawgrass and the green is bordered with boulders, making it fit perfectly into its desert surroundings.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” centered_text=”true” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][nectar_btn size=”large” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”Accent-Color” icon_family=”none” text=”Book a Golf Holiday to Play PGA West” url=”https:\/\/www.yourgolftravel.com\/la-quinta-resort-and-club”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” id=”brohofslott” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]\n
