#3: Baltusrol Golf Club

Lower Course

Location: Springfield, New Jersey

Par: 72

Yardage: 7,400 yards

This is admittedly a very recent addition to my favorites list. As recent as this past summer when the course hosted the 2016 PGA Championship. The only thing I could think of when watching the tournament was: when will I get to play it? The course conditions immediately drew my attention as some of the best I have ever seen.

This course has 36-total holes, split into two 18-hole courses, the Upper Course and the Lower Course. The Lower Course is the one that has been used for the major championship events it hosts. In total, the A. W. Tillinghast designed course has hosted nine total major championships, seven U.S. Opens and two PGA Championships. The PGA Championship made a stop back to Baltusrol this past summer for just the second time after being there for the 2005 event.
