This is truly GD’s greatest content series. These are amazing.
Agreed!
Absolutely. I hope they just keep going and going. I will never get enough of these.
What a brutally demanding course! I got scared just watching...
You know a course is tough when you lose 12 balls just playing it in your head.
Self deprecating comments always do well on golf videos 🤣👏🏼
😂😂😂
Was fortunate to have the opportunity to play here just three weeks ago right before they closed the course down for the Ryder Cup. What an incredible golf course and venue. Cannot recommend highly enough.
Lucky sod! Love it. I got to do that with St. George's, before The Open that Darren Clarke won
So what was your score ? And did you have a handicap?
@@MrGritteeth Shot an 85. No handicap. We played the tips and I was surprised to see the Ryder Cup tees being placed forward of our tees on a lot of holes. An unforgettable experience though despite the lackluster play on my end haha.
Is this course available for the public? I’m preparing my bucket list to play when I retire in 2 yrs max
Yes it is open to the public! Worth every penny too@@superalain1961
I look forward to every one of these vids
I feel the course needs more length and bunkers!!
This course is incredible! Perfect for the Ryder Cup! So excited!
Can you imagine going out to play, no spectators...no help looking for balls....probably ball selling stands every few holes
Easily one of the world's best golf courses.
These videos makes my local course look like a pool table!
What an incredibly challenging course, I hope to play it someday. Also, the well written VO in this piece, in combination with the music choices, plays like a Wes Anderson movie narration.
I lost golf balls just watching this
😅
I think I saw some of the 2 dozen golf balls I lost when I played here in 2020!!!
This course has the most beautiful, bountiful and brutal bunker setup on maybe any course. Friggin majestic.
You must have led a sheltered life
@@keithlordofalbascotland3371 We can't all be privileged and see every golf course. Way to turn a course compliment into a personal trolling session. You must be great at parties. 👍
@Keith Lord way to show utter lack of class to somebody showing admiration. I hope everyone is Alba isn't a needless jerk like you.
Great video. Well written and well shot. The networks never go this in-depth when they do their course descriptions/flyovers.
Incredible. I think I would shoot a 200 here
What about the back 9 dude, lol
Never stop doing these videos! I love them all!
Beautiful course. Wow.
This is my favorite course in the entire country to play, and matched by all the Bandon Dunes courses but this one is just mesmerizing each time - there is a large eagles nest on the tall trees left of the teebox on the 10th hole and and 18th hole is a sunset magic at the right time
I shot an 88 at Maddens Classic the week before. Shot 124 at WS the week later. Absolutely worth it.
Looks like a great place to scavange for Pro V1's. Must be thousands of them in those dunes that could help subsidise my green fee!
Wish there was a smoother visual transition to the start of each hole. Would've loved to see the green to tee walk ups through the drone.
Looks like a great & worthy Ryder Cup test. I'm English, but I'm thinking, in spite of this track being particularly links like, the Americans are going to be grabbing the cup back this time.
My prediction: 15 1/2 - 12 1/2
Good luck to both teams. Let's have a great tourney, played in Nicklaus/Jacklin type spirit 🏆👍🏻
To get around this course par is what it’s all about a great challenge for the worlds golfing elite
Wow! Great video! Thank you.
The Ryder Cup is going to be awesome!
I’m Ryder cup ready
🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺
I have the privilege of playing here in 2022 in jul
y.. we booked super early knowing after the world watches the tee sheet will be a hot commodity. I love 2 hours south, been here before for the 2015 pga.. was blown away. Time to tackle it myself. Mid 80s golfer about To be humbled. Went diabolical package so we get both whistling
Beautifully written and narrarated
I played here in 2016. I enjoyed my experience tremendously. I played all of them at the American Club. I was in that bunker on #6. Basically the center of the green. The pin was on the right. The caddy told me to just pick it up. I wanted to play it. I swear when i got in there it got dark! I flipped it to about 3'. A memorable shot. Black Wolf run is the more difficult course. In some ways a better golf course but to each their own.
@Golf Digest, thanks for these, truly the best videos! Maybe start doing the women's major/Solheim courses too? Would love to get a few more of these each year
Great suggestion, Kristopher. Appreciate the support, we love making them.
Monster of a course
What an incredible course. Wow.
On the holes you play well, you forget there were even bunkers or the lake. But that illusion won't last the entire round unless you're a Pro champion.
I tried hitting out of that bunker on Gremlin's Ear, it was hellish. Really look forward to all the different pin locations during the Ryder Cup.
I would shoot over 100 there as a 7 handicap I'm sure and lose a dozen balls.
Sand Hills and Whistling Straights are my two dream courses
I'll be there next week!
It would take me all day and 2 dozen balls (min) to finish. Absolutely terrifyingly beautiful layout.
Those par 3s are scary af😮
these are some monstrous holes
OMG what a (beautiful beast) test. Well….let’s go Europe ! 💪🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺
I didn't realise the EU was Europe.
These are my favorite videos on TH-cam- kindly requesting Fishers Island Club, LACC, NGLA, Pinehurst :)
This isn't a Golf Course, this is a 3D Van Gogh painting using sand traps as brush strokes.
You said it. Beautiful
MASTERPIECE.
Played here last year during fall break, it was unbelievable!!
I've been waiting for this one for a while. Thank you.
Our pleasure, thanks!
@@GolfDigest Love this series! I learn so much about these amazing courses. Thank you!
Excellent video. I've played here twice. It's beautiful. No doubt. Was it fun? Maybe...
WHAT a dream job to manage this course!⛳
You word 'intimidating' is not strong enough to describe this (beautiful) golf course.
Some people look at the fairways and greens. I just look at the sand and mounds, since that’s where I’d be hanging out most of the day….
I’m playing this in May, it looks wildly difficult.
How many balls did you lose?
@@sherlockholmes60 I didn’t actually lose one single ball (SHOCKINGLY), hit it a bit all over the place, but always found it (well the caddy found it). That is an incredible property.
@@user-sb4zv7pv4i That's great to hear. I'm going in September and I cant wait.
@@sherlockholmes60 free hot dogs and brats at the turn house are delicious, really good. It’s a pretty brutal walk (the straits), but a ton of fun. Caddies are great with photos, etc. My advice would be if you land in a fairway bunker and aren’t confident you can advance it all the way to the green, get back out to the fairway asap. The amount of bunker trouble all up the sides and surrounding the greens is pretty daunting and bogeys can turn into triples in a hurry if you don’t play smart (or within yourself at least).
Excellent golf course, I shot a 65 there and on the back nine I......
On #5 I think the best strategy it to hit it straight at the green off the tee with a 350 yard carry that rolls out to 417 leaving only a 70 yard pitch shot to a tap in eagle.
Funny watching this after the Ryder cup and hearing you mention the 5 hole and say it was a lame duck, I would have agreed but after seeing Dechambeau drive 407 and carry I think it was one of the most exciting. Great video
This is a beast.
#teamusa So excited! Bet Reed is not happy. Kind of a drag he wasn't picked. Hope Keopka delivers. With it being played in my dear state of Wisconsin. What a beautiful course. #gopackgo
can’t wait to play it
Just had a look at the slope rating. Off the black tees it’s 152! Which means I get 5 shots for my 3.4 h’cap. Somehow, I think that’s not gonna get me round here in a decent score🧐
I've been fortunate to play 60-70 of the world top 100. For mine, Whistling Straihts is one of the most underrated golf courses. It's always on my top 30. Just one good hole after another
Looks like a long, tricked up course, with forced carries. The landscape is gorgeous, and there's no need to make it tougher. Because of modern technology, we hit the ball farther than before. The classics, like Riviera can still stand up to it
Thank you
This game is all about the course
Nothing and I mean nothing beats the Irish landscape ..ardglass GC, Royal Portrush, Royal County down… but the states will always have manicured courses
Incredible!
Was waiting for this one
Just wow
Incredible
Great stuff thanks for posting
I like Whistling Straights
Wow!
Stunning yet terrifying! should be an amazing Ryder Cup!
Business opportunity to set up a golf ball shop between holes 9 and 10. Would make a fortune.
Played it twice. Shot 130
This course translates so well on television. 17 and 18 are bruisers.
1-16 don't exactly look walks in the park either 😂
@@PhilBot4OOO Isn't that the truth?!
incredible
I suspect advantage Europe this coming weekend.
Brilliant video
I'd be happy with
Was literally looking to see if this existed a week ago. Happy to see I was just way too early.
Im a 10, hcp and would be pushed to break 120 on that course, an loose +12 balls.
Was looking forward to the Ryder Cup, I am not excited now that ever. Should be a great weekend for golf. Need to check and see if this course is on my simulator too.
Hole 4 is the hardest Par 4 I've ever played
Looks like theres 10,000 bunkers!!!
I would gladly pay the $330 to play here. I might not break 110, but that's not my point. A dream course.
wow
Do you guys notice how bad of condition the bunkers are in...standing water in a lot, meaning the drainage is starting to fail, the ones around the greens have new sand while every other bunker have junk dirt sand. This is why you don't have this many bunkers on a course, the price to fix even half with new drainage after removing old dirt muck sand, adding the new rock polymer system for drainage and hold sand up instead of bunker fabric and finally adding new sand WOULD BE A INSANE PRICE. 1 - 3 million depending on how cheap or expensive they go, its that expensive because they have 1,000 plus bunkers that aren't needed, that is just what Pete dye does, GOES WAY OVERBOARD ON EVERY COURSE HE WORKS ON, that's my opinion
I think this is one of the few courses I have absolutely no interest in playing. Dear god.
Fun to watch, probably not as fun to play
I agree pebble beach and cypress point is more like it prefer the sea to a big lake.
Trust me I know every hole and have it mastered, I shot a 59 here.
On PGA 2k that is
Not possible.
@@stevenpdick yes it is I was there
@@andonself8495
Soooo, you're on the wall in the clubhouse? No.
@@stevenpdick the joke flew 100 ft over your head
Shout out Mitch Conners
I'd hate to be that grounds keeper that rakes the bunkers
a 520 yard par 4 are you serious
There are 1012 bunkers on this course. They're going over budget just on them
Thankfully, we didn't have another 2010 PGA incident during the Ryder Cup.
I might shoot a 150.....my playing partner a 300
If you get in one of those green side bunkers bring some camping gear you'll be there awhile! That looks like a dozen lost balls and 100 plus score for me, and I'm a 7 handicap. Too gimmicky for my taste and I don't want to play target golf I prefer more parkland style courses.
I have to agree. Golf is meant to be enjoyed and this does not look enjoyable to play. Beautiful, yes - and I’ll be watching for sure!
A grounds keepers nightmare.
Brilliant scriptwriting.
Who are the 3 people who disliked this and why do they exist??
ppl who paid lots n got humiliated playing whistling straights.
@@oldtommorris5502 Good point 😂
Roll on Friday hope Europe can win it but the USA look so strong but it's gonna be brilliant and close I'm guessing
First hole at Waterville Kerry is called! “Last easy”. It’s not that easy.
Scariest looking course in USA
Doesn't look like any Irish course I've ever played, which I thought was supposed to be their intention. I mean that in a negative way.
Going here in a week. Yea gonna lose about 48 balls 😂
Don't fancy the 7th
