Golf magazine has put together a .kml file so you can visit all of the top 100 you can play with a Google Earth plugin.

I couldn't get it to work with Google Chrome, which I downloaded today...the Google Earth plug-in doesn't seem to work with Google Chrome. 

I could get it to work fine with Firefox, though.

Most golf clubs in Britain and some in Europe are now identified on Google Earth, but some are incorrect! MSN Virtual Earth has pretty well all US courses named, but I find it less easy to use.
