TPC Sawgrass: 17th Hole, 132 yards
There are so many iconic par 3's but if there is one that stands out above any other it the 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass. It is known by golfers as THE island green, and the fact that it was established only 33 years ago makes it even more amazing. It is the only hole in golf that is the signature or face of a major course. The hole claims more balls to the water than any other hole in the history of golf, and that alone is enough to terrorize even the professionals. Every year at the Players Championship, the best golfers in the world travel to Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida for one of the biggest tournaments in the world. Personally, it is my favorite hole in the world and would be my number one choice for 1 hole to play before I die. It's beauty can be overshadowed by its intimidation...
