Golf is played all over the world and one of its many strengths is that the land on which we play is very often extremely attractive. Even if we are playing poorly, we can still take solace in the setting and lose ourselves (and our golf balls) in nature. Beauty takes shape in many different forms; natural and manmade, subtle and in-your-face, physical and cerebral. While some courses are strategically strong but perhaps less obviously physically beautiful, there are many that are sensationally good looking, and these occur all over the world.
