No. 17 at Whistling Straits

The final major golf tournament of the season — the PGA — is being played this week at Whistling Straits Golf Club on the windy shores of Lake Michigan in Kohler, Wisconsin. Whistling Straits is a relatively new golf course that has a reputation of being a monster. However, it has never hosted a major golf tournament and thus, is not that well known to the general golfing public.
I was taking a look at some pictures and video of the golf course last night and came across this picture of the incredible 223 yard 17th hole. Check out video flyover that reflects that the hole is even tougher than the picture suggests. I think I would use my “block right” swing on this one.
