No. 17, The Road Hole, St. Andrews GC

The Open Championship in golf was played this year at the old course at St. Andrews, Scotland. TV networks allow us to see more and more detail of golf holes once known only to those who could go there. This is No. 17, par 4, known as the Road Hole, because a road into town is literally next to the green. And a player must tee off over a building! There is an enormous, treacherous, deep pot bunker next to the green, and the town is behind the 17th and 18th holes. This hole humbled many pros! I had fun painting it!
