    My hardest was Whistling Strait’s right in the middle of a handful of incredible courses in the middle of Pete Dye’s beautiful works in Wisconsin. The Bull - A Nicklaus course, Black wolf Run, the Irish course etc….

    The Pete Dye Course at French Lick, Indiana is worthy of mention too. I seem to recall that the 2019 Senior LPGA tournament there had a cut-line after two days of about +15. Gorgeous course but you're always about to fall off the mountains it's built upon.

    Hardest course I've played is the Greg Norman designed Brookwater Country club west of Brisbane Australia. I haven't travelled far but this course is undulating though natural bushland. I found it difficult because of its tight fairways and slick greens. Also, on the day I played, you didn't need to venture far off the fairways to find knee high rough and impossible lies. The course is home to WTA world number 1 Ash Barty, the current women's club champion.

    Royal “Country” Down? And ‘Tom Doaack?’ Love these computer generated voices
    I’ve played two courses on this list: Whistling straits (multiple times) and the ocean course at Kiawah. The ocean course is significantly overrated in its difficulty. Like most Dye designs, they’re visually intimidating but once you get past that and hit your lines, you can play fairly well. There are plenty of other courses more difficult than the ocean course.
    Whistling straits is difficult-truly. There’s a lot of visual intimidation but also the lines are ‘uncomfortable’ at times. And if the wind blows, it’s a beast. But there’s a more difficult course in the same resort at Whistling Straits-it’s the River course at Blackwolf run. Any of the pros at the complex will tell you off the record that the River course is a couple shots harder than Whistling straits. And it’s 15 minutes away. And…..they’ve actually softened it a bit over the years and it’s still just a nutcracker.

      Yeah, the country down thing got to me, too. Almost left the video but glad I stayed.
      I've played Whistling Straits and actually birdied one hole (and absolutely duffed the rest). Almost got a "sheep in one" coming out of one of the 6 billion bunkers, as the sheep were wandering the course that day. Played Black Wolf the next day and that could be on this list as well.
      I would give honorable mention to Old Head of Kinsale in Ireland here. Beautiful but intimidating.
