Apparel is a Medium. Style is an Art. For the casual observer, the Web.com tour is an afterthought and home for no-name golfers. Thanks in part to changes in the structure of the Web.com tour, these events are now loaded with talented golfers who will absolutely be playing on the big stage as it is the road to the PGA Tour.
Getting Web.com status is incredibly hard but getting to play week in and week out is even more difficult. There will be over 150 people with a Web.com tour card, yet full field events only allow for 125 spots. Just because you have Web.com status does not mean you have the green light to play in each event.
At Torture Country Club, the average par-3 is 229 yards. The average par-4 is 491. And the average par-5 is 589. Those are some beefy holes. 3. We don’t need 9,000-yard golf courses (yet!)
The average purse on the Web.com Tour is $634,444, with a top winner's prize of $180,000. Obviously, the average player on the PGA Tour is better equipped financially to handle the costs of travel, which explains why Web.com Tour players are more apt to share rides and hotel rooms when the situation dictates.

Good, based on what is average, is 90 strokes for every 18 holes played. This “good” golf score is based on playing a round of golf on an industry standard par 72 course. If a golfer stays within (assuming they are an amateur) scoring a 90-108 stroke (maximum), they are within the 'good golf score' range.
The Course Rating of Augusta National turned out to be 76.2, which puts it in the top ten toughest courses in the U.S.
The Masters has long been considered the easiest and toughest major to win. It is the easiest because the actual number of players truly capable of winning is typically 20 to 30. It is the easiest because it is the only major played at the same site.
The Open Championship Also known as The Open or British Open is the oldest tournament of the Grand Slam. It's considered to be the most prestigious as it's held in the homeland of golf.

You may not have expected an appearance from the Puerto Rico Open on this list, but Coco Beach’s longest hole brought the heat in 2019.

76.567. I can’t believe that number isn’t higher. This is the most difficult combination of golf holes on the entire PGA Tour and the average pro is still easily breaking 80.
At Torture Country Club, the average par-3 is 229 yards. The average par-4 is 491. And the average par-5 is 589. Those are some beefy holes.
If we tabulate this same brutal course at the end of this season, the number will likely be much higher. Why? Because pros went relatively low at the 2019 U.S. Open at Pebble Beach, especially compared to this September’s test at Winged Foot. Scan the numbers above and you’ll see that the very toughest holes play about 0.3 shots over par.
Remember, these are the best golfers in the world playing the very hardest golf holes in the world. Maybe this is a question best left unanswered.
You've probably never heard of Port Lavaca, Texas, about 125 miles southwest of Houston. You also probably haven't heard of its architect, Mike Nuzzo. Built for a single client, Wolf Point is the ultimate "backyard" golf course.
This Johnny Miller/Gene Bates-designed course, located in Colts Neck, New Jersey, used to be the private territory of Robert Brennan, who headed a penny stock trading company until he was jailed for a decade for money laundering in 2001 (after being released from prison, Brennan went to work at the course). The course, named after the associated thoroughbred racing stable, eventually ended up in the possession of a former Goldman Sachs executive and one of the co-founders of Arizona Iced Tea. Now, it is probably the least-exclusive course on this list, with a relatively large membership (between 100 and 150, we hear), each in at a reported $350,000 initiation fee.
Located on the New York-Connecticut line, part of this mysterious club is actually visible from another course: the municipal Richter Park in Danbury, Conn. But that's the closest you are likely to get to this layout, unless you're an invited high-ranking employee or client of insurance giant AIG, whose former CEOs Cornelius Vander Starr and Maurice Greenberg guided the property into quiet fame. In addition to the immaculately-kept grounds, those who have played Morefar have marveled at the statues and sculptures placed throughout the course, including one in the middle of a bunker. The atmosphere and even the club's logo echo the Chinese influence on AIG's history.
You may have read about Tim and Edra Blixseth, who developed the extremely private (but still too well-known for this list) Yellowstone Club in Montana and subsequently fell on hard times when the now-divorced couple's financial house collapsed on them.
Wall Street billionaire Dirk E. Ziff is one of about two dozen member/owners of Cherokee Plantation near Yemassee, South Carolina. The property is a few thousand acres large, with a Donald Steel-designed golf course at the heart which hosts fewer than a thousand rounds in most years.
The Prince of Morocco's palace contains a golf course within its crenellated walls, which even border a couple holes of the Robert Trent Jones, Jr. design. Unless you're an invited guest of the Prince, you'll have to qualify for the European Tour's Trophée Hassan II event (or its pro-am) in order to tee it up here, where many months sometimes pass between rounds, though the course is always kept in perfect shape just in case the Prince has the urge to play a round.
