Stunningly designed feature pages provide a thorough understanding of the golfing scene throughout the world-including regions that the "World Atlas" never included before. There are even maps showing locations of key clubs, plus sumptuous computer-generated artworks of each course, filled with impressive detail, and "cutaways" of signature holes., A beautifully designed and illustrated guide to the greatest golf courses on the planet.
