Colonial Country Club

The Colonial Country Club is infamous for its difficulty.  For starters, in the Dean & Deluca Invitational, the average score of some of the best golfers in the world was just a smidgen about 71.  Only five eagles were recorded, and only the winner, Kevin Kisner, finished in double digits.

Erin Hills

Erin Hills was the site of the U.S. Open, and boy, did it prove quite a challenge for many pro golfers.  Only 25 eagles were recorded, with 1,493 bogeys for good measure.  Erin Hills will test the patience of almost every golfer who attempts to pass through it.

Oak Hill Country Club

Of all the holes in the Oak Hill Country Club, the most memorable one is the third.  In two PGA Tours, the third hole only allowed 42 birdies.  The trees coupled with the heavy bunker around the green make this hole extremely frustrating for golfers.

There are more courses out there presenting challenges for even the most seasoned of golfers.  Feel free to share them in the comments section below.
