Father's Day is around the corner, but any sunny day is a good day to hit the golf course.

And don't miss the Los Angeles and New York City golf guides.

A Real Players Course
Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida
The Lowdown: A signature course with signature details and full stadium seating for spectators, Sawgrass is one of the best championship courses in the country and recently hosted the 2012 Players Championship.
Caddie Tip: The 17th hole gets a lot of attention, but the 18th — a 462-yard, par-4 guarded by water down the left side — is the more formidable one.
