Quite simply the most amazing golf hole on the planet

The brand-new golf course at the Legends Golf & Safari Resort in South Africa is an amazing stretch of 18 holes designed by 18 different top-flight golfers, including Padraig Harrington, Colin Montgomerie, K.J. Choi, Retief Goosen, Justin Rose, Trevor Immelman and Vijay Singh.

The course's so-called "Xtreme 19th" hole is a par 3 -- a par 3 whose tee is atop a cliff on Hanglip Mountain, more than 1,400 feet above a green carved like the continent of Africa. You've got to take a helicopter to get to the tee box, and from there it's more than 630 yards to the pin. Once you tee off, it takes nearly 30 seconds for the ball to hit the ground.

I played a tournament on a temp course on private property back in the early 1980s where one one hole we had to tee off of a hill over a creek, then when we were done, the group got in the back of a pickup, drove out to the main road, over the bridge spanning the creek, then drove back into the property on the other side of the creek, near where our shots landed (or the first shots that made it across the creek).

There is a video of guys throwing off this Mountain of a hole on you tube. Pretty wild. Good luck finding your disc if you do not hit the fairway.

It's quite possible that it's the most aesthetically designed, and most challenging DG course in the Universe.
