Every course. Ranked.

Seven holes hug the Pacific cliffs. The rest wind through Del Monte forest. Every golfer should play it once - and then start saving for the second trip.

No water hazards. No out of bounds. Just wiregrass, sand, and the most diabolical turtleback greens in golf. No. 2 doesn't beat you with length - it beats you with your putter.

Pete Dye built this on a swamp to punish the pros, and it worked. The Stadium Course is target golf at its most theatrical, climaxing at the famous 17th.

Links golf on the Pacific cliffs, wind howling, fescue underfoot, no carts allowed. Bandon Dunes started a revolution in American golf travel.

Pete Dye sculpted a flat lakeside site into something resembling the Irish coast, complete with roaming sheep. It hosted the PGA Championship and the Ryder Cup.

Pete Dye's oceanfront monster has more seaside holes than any course in the Northern Hemisphere. When the wind blows, the 155 slope is no joke.

Perched on cliffs above the Pacific, Torrey Pines South is a municipal course that hosts the U.S. Open. Non-residents pay $252; locals pay a fraction of that. The sunset views alone are worth it.

The opening holes at Spyglass are the toughest start in golf: five brutal par 4s into the ocean wind. Then it turns inland into the pines. Jack Nicklaus called the first five holes the toughest he had ever played.

Pete Dye and a 29-year-old Jack Nicklaus built Harbour Town in 1969, and it changed course design forever: small greens, tight corridors, no bailouts. The RBC Heritage has been played here ever since.

Home of the Waste Management Phoenix Open and its legendary stadium 16th hole. Desert golf at tour scale, playable by everyone the other 51 weeks of the year.
