Personally, 5. (hole #4 at Quicksilver)

The first time I saw Arnold Palmer "live" I saw him 5 putt the 7th hole at Quicksilver.

Some of the grees are large and all of them are undulating. If you're on the wrong side of the hole, watch out!

I had a 4-putt today at the Championship Course at Deer Run - hit an iron to the wrong side of the green on 11. Still kept it in the 70s and brought home $40 :)

Outside of Orlando there is a course called North Shore.The first hole is 312yd par 4 which is drivable if down wind.There is a huge mound that runs the whole width of the green and they had the pin on the upper half.Well I kill my drive and bounce it up on the gree on the lower half and proceed to 5 putt for a 6.My Mrs was in stiches for the next 3 or 4 holes.

7 Some grounds keeper thought it would be funny to putt the hole right in the middle of a slope... so if your short it comes back down if you putt it 2 hard it will slide down and run off

1996 in a club tournament at Spanish Trail (Las Vegas). The second hole is a dogleg right par 5. Water all down the right side and front of green. I hit Driver, 5 Wood to within 12 feet. Putting for eagle. Instead, adrenalin took over and I 6 putt for an 8.

I was out playing a few weeks ago and net 6 strokes from my first putt. My poor club choice combined with hitting it slightly thin airmailed the pin to the back of a really long green. It was a long, very slow at first, then very quick, up a hill, down a hill putt from about 100 feet that, if hit too hard would roll off the green and under a bunch of bushes on the right side leaving an unplayable shot. I got a little chicken and rolled it to the top of the hill leaving about 30 feet downhill right to left. My buddy's ball was in the way at the bottom of the hill about 10 feet from the cup. I thought for sure I wouldn't hit it, so I told him not to mark it. Sure enough I hit it, leaving my ball where his was, and racking up a penalty stroke. I rolled the next putt about 2 feet past the hole on the low side, leaving an uphill 2 footer, which I promptly lipped out. Then I went on to shoot even over the next 5 holes for a net score of 40.

    • I think in fairness what he means is Tommy's chances to win PGA Tour events are fairly similar in number to Rory's chances to win the Masters. I don't think he's remotely saying that Tommy and Rory are in the same league. Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but I took the comment as meaning if he keeps giving himself chances to win then eventually he will win one. Rory had a thing in his head about the Masters and won anyway. Tommy has a thing in his head about PGA Tour events. They do seem fairly analogous to me.
    • Don't get me wrong, I like TF from a nice-guy-next-door perspective but I was surprised at the nerves he showed on the 2nd putt on 17th. That was unmistakably a stroke of a player who had already submitted to the writing on the wall. Honestly I would not expect that out of a veteran tour player. I would have liked to continue rooting for him but gotta see a bit more fight from him. Rory could be reasonably accused of being a head case but he is a fighter. Big difference.
    • Um no. Rory Wins PGA Tour 29, EU 19, Majors 5, FedEx Cup 3 Tommy PGA Tour 0, EU 7, Majors 0, FedEx 0 He may win eventually, but he’s not in the same league as Rory.  
    • Like Colin Montgomerie? 😛 
    • It's rarely 95%. At some courses it's not even 90%.
