re: Favorite Hole at Augusta?

I really love 2/3 (Pink Dogwood/ Flowering Peach).
But, I'd have to choose #3 as my favorite.
For me, these two holes set the tone for how the round is going to go for each player.
Hole #1 is the toughest hole at Augusta (at least in 2017 based on cumulative statistics), and everyone is dealing with the nerves of the Masters.
Then, #2 gives them a chance to recover/grab a birdie/eagle.
So, #3 is the first real hole that shows what kind of form and mentality the golfer is in. Shortest par 4, but moderately tough.
And I just love the setup.
Beautiful fairway bunker design, challenging but open green, and I think it has the prettiest flowers.

16. the skipping across the water is my favorite and i cant wait to see it. a few years back i watched a buddy drunker than cooter brown skip a ball of a pond on a par 3 up on the green.
it's a hole for the people. maybe the one thing at augusta that isnt super uptight.

Playing the course on XBOX made me appreciate how difficult I'm sure it is for anyone who has actually played it. That first par-3, I think it's called flowering crab apple, that damn hole is hard as hell on the game. Really long and you have to hit a long iron or hybrid - so if the flag is behind the bunker you have no chance of getting it within 20 feet.
But overall I think 15 is my favorite. With how narrow the green is and with water right in front, off of a down hill lie, think it would be fun to give it a shot.

#12, 13, and 16 are all great for drama.
