Favourite Augusta Hole

[G.U.R]

If you could play one hole at Augusta which one would you choose?

I think I would go for 10, nice down hill par 4 ok large fairway bunker to avoid but lovely looking hole.

16th - the water, the slope on the green. makes for great theatre on the 70th hole of the tournament

Got to be 13. Turn a 3 wood round the corner off the tee to leave a long iron over the creek and then face a scary downhill big swinging putt for eagle (OK it would be duck hook into the creek, hack it up the right hand side, approach shot long into the bunker, overhit the bunker shot into the creek, pitch up past the hole and 3 jab it)

Have to agree with 13. Still a great risk reward even though it is in range these days for all the field. 16 too is the perfect short hole in terms of where its situated and the rewards for birdie and fact the tournament could be gone if you find water

16 for me, and I'd have to have a go at that chip if the flag was in the right spot!

I like the 18th .. fairly simple, but when the pressure is on it is a great finishing hole.

Amen corner, I couldnt point at any one, all three make it.

13th massive hole and great risk and reward.
Michelsons 6 iron off the pine needles for me was shot of the year.

 

[Hobbit]

11th for me. The course suddenly starts baring its teeth and things get interesting.

5th for me.

I would love to play the 11th ... May seem an odd choice but it's where you get the first sight of your favourite pro appear on the live coverage on a Thursday or Friday if they are an early starter. In my head I always think how hard can it be to aim at the front of the green and take the slope down to the hole? Judging by how many take a bogey or worse I would assume it's very hard but would be good fun to try.


Then I'd sneak onto 12 and play that

Has to be the 13th - there has been some mazing shots and fluffs on that whole

16th for me. Lovely hole to look at and I would imagine a pretty nerve wracking tee shot to boot.

Cant believe nobody has mentioned the 12th. Only 155 yards but the wind just swirls and it can be a 9 iron one min and a 6 the next.

 

[Imurg]

13th for me.
You need two quality shots to make the green sub-regulation and then one or two quality putts to Eagle or Birdie..
If you lay-up, it tests your short game to the limit.

13th for me. Great hole. Lots of tactical choices. What do I hit off the tee? Where do I lay up to with my second ? Where to drop for my fourth?

13th. That is where the tournament really starts on a Sunday evening.
