...that bastion of architectural knowledge.

#10 Riviera
#18 Bay Hill
#16 TPC Scottsdale
#18 at Doral
#18 TPC Sawgrass
#7 Pebble Beach
#18 Pebble Beach
#13 Augusta National
#12 Augusta National
#17 TPC Sawgrass

I suppose one could quibble with the list but it's interesting that 6 of the 10 come from 3 of the best holes the PGA Tour visits annually.

How do they define 'best'?  If I'm in the business of showing golf on television, ain't no way #17 at TPC isn't on the list.

[Adam Clayman]

NO #8 AT PB?
Surely the criteria must've been related to beer sales?

[Chuck Brown]

Did Liberty National count as just one gigantic hole?   

[Scott Warren]

10 Best? Or 10 Most Photogenic?

[Jason McNamara]

Most memorable / most popular.

Clearly that is the only way Scottsdale made the list.

[Patrick_Mucci]

Water seems to be the dominant feature with that group of holes

[Dan Boerger]

Another dominant feature of this list is that the majority of the holes are late in the round ... where there's more likely to be more drama.

[Will Smith]

I think that Mr. Mucci hit the nail on the head. #10 at Riviera is the only hole that does not feature a red stake. And it came in at #10. A shame that the GC is perpetuating these holes as good design. Dramatic holes, yes. Great holes....?

[Bob Jenkins]

I agree with Dan and note that only Pebble #7 is on the front nine. It is a list of photogenic courses most people are familiar from TV as they show up late in the round. That is about it.

[Garland Bayley]

Besides Jordan Wall says Riviera blows Pebble Beach away.

Need to revise your count.

[Jason McNamara]

I think that Mr. Mucci hit the nail on the head. #10 at Riviera is the only hole that does not feature a red stake.

16th @ Scottsdale?

[Adrian_Stiff]

Remember this site is the minority opinion. TPC 17... might get the worldwide #1 on a mass vote, 12/13 ANGC might be close too.

[Jaeger Kovich]

I bet if you asked the players on tour to vote on their favorites, I could see how this could be it. Holes like 18 at Arnies place, the par-3 in Scottsdale, the island green and the drivable? hole at Riviera, ALL would be such an incredible feeling to play in competition.

... Just an observation.... No "player architects" made the list... maybe Palmer? I guess, but no Jack

[Richard Choi]

You know, whenever I watch TGC's Top 10 program, all I see is this...



What was the question again?

[Tim Pitner]

TGC has upgraded the talent tremendously.

Aren't Doral #18, TPC Sawgrass #18 and Bay Hill #18 essentially the same hole?
