The Road Hole bunker, the Postage Stamp and the island green at Sawgrass are recognizable even without a scorecard. These photos show what the camera picks up from the tee, above the green or right beside the hazard: the narrow landing area, the awkward angle or the stretch of water a player has to carry. The tour runs from Scottish links to Augusta National and the Pacific coast, with a stop in Idaho for a green that actually floats. The captions point out what to look for in each photo and recall the tournament shots that made several of these holes famous.
