Did you know this iconic hole almost didn’t happen? When consulting on the design of Pebble Beach Golf Links, English architect Herbert Fowler recommended abandoning the 7th hole. He wrote: “I am quite ready to admit the beauty of the location from a scenic standpoint, but the golfing shot required is not of such a character as would make it worthwhile to descend to the lower level and then have to rise again. I think it would be quite easy to find another location for a one-shot hole to take its place..." Luckily, Samuel F.B. Morse disagreed. 📸: jeffkmarsh . . . . . #mypebblebeach #pebblebeach #7thhole #pebblebeachgolflinks #pebblebeachgolf #pebblebeachgolfcourse #beautifulgolfcourses #bucketlistgolf #golf #golfaddict #golfcourse #golfcoursephotos #golfcourses #golfheaven #golfisfun #golfisgreate #golfislife #golflife #golflifestyle #golfstagram #golftravel #golftrip #ilovegolf #instagolf #top100golf #whyilovethisgame
