Heritage Classic has been very good to Davis Love III

[Jasmineiey 0]

Every year, the PGA Tour gathers at Hilton Head Island, S.C., to play a tournament at one of the best golf courses in the world. Harbour Town Golf Links has hosted the Heritage Classic since 1969 and has seen plenty of great finishes in its day.

 

The biggest problem on the course is the wind. The final hole has a huge grandstand layout, a lighthouse in the background and plenty of wind blowing out to the Atlantic. It's almost like St. Andrews in Scotland.

 

Davis Love III has entered the Heritage 25 straight years, a record for the course. He also holds the distinction of being the only five-time winner of the tournament dating back to his first win at Harbour Town in 1987, his first professional victory.

 

His last win at the Heritage Classic is one of the most memorable. On the very last hole, Love needed a chip in to force a playoff against fellow American Woody Austin. You can see video of his shot here on the PGA website.

 

It was far from easy
