Default Hardest golf course I ever played
http://www.ballyhackgolfclub.com/

I played it on Thursday. The member that was in our group sold his business a few years ago for $78 million and had a patent he sold for $29 million. That's just stupid rich

TPC Tampa, the greens were like putting on glass.

76 rating 155 slope?!?
that's even harder than Royal New Kent- 76.5 rating 147 slope!

edit: just realized that 155 is the highest slope possible, they don't assign any higher!

Whistling straits in Haven, WI (home of 2010 PGA Championship)

You can score great on one hole and be happy to pick up a 8 on the next, especially if the wind is blowing. God damn Pete Dye

Spyglass Hill beat me up worse than anyplace else. Not that any golf course couldn't do that to me, but I have to say that was the hardest I've played.

Phil, I have played Royal New Kent on multiple occasions. That course is more visually intimidating than actually being difficult. If you hit the ball well there, you can score.

Ballyhack was just hard.

If I make it to Virginia sometime this summer we will get out there and whack it around. Played a tournament in 40-50 mph winds last Saturday, man I sucked out there. Had balls move on me twice while putting and called penalties on myself.
