I only saw one mention of it so far, so I will say that I found the finish at Deal (RCP), to be exceptional.  Not only the final three holes, but really all the way back to at least 12, the stretch of holes on the inward nine are wonderful.

Into the prevailing wind and with 16 a par 4, it's just about the hardest stretch of holes I know of. It's just beast of a hole after beast of a hole. 16, 17 and 18 are all wonderful holes.

I like Brora. 16 at Brora, Plateau, is 345 yards playing (often) over cattle, dogleg right to an elated blind green. 17, Tarbotness, is a wonderful hole, 438 par 4 from an elevated tee with a choice of either a right, higher fairway or a left, lower fairway. Then it's up to a distant green. 18, Home Hole,  is a 200 yard par 3, anmd par 3s for a final hole are often disliked. This one generates strong feelings. Be short and roll waaaaaay down the hill. Right is severly sloped with rough, and left puts a severe bunker in play. FUN!

So much golf to play, so little time....

It doesn’t get much love here but Baltusrol Lower 16-18 are exceptional holes as far as the shots they ask for to successfully navigate them.
