You may not realize it, but John Fought has two holes on this list — this one, and the 16th at Washington National, a hole he designed in 2000. Fought’s name is on some of the most famous courses in America — Indian Wells, Sand Hollow, Crosswater and Windsong among them — but the Oregon native has always had a fondness for the Northwest, and especially the two courses he designed here, Washington National and Trophy Lake. So, asking him to pick his favorite par-3 in Washington is like asking him to pick a favorite child. Fortunately, golf holes can’t read, so he did it for us anyway: “I suppose my favorite is the 17th at Trophy Lake. While being a short hole (118-155 yards), it can be quite challenging. The setting is beautiful, tucked into the trees with wetlands and water areas that surround. What I like about this hole is that if someone is brave and precise with their tee shot, it will provide a reward. But errant shots are punished.”
