Donegal Golf Club on Murvagh Peninsula in the north of Ireland

Donegal Golf Club is located on Murvagh Peninsula in Donegal Bay, not far from Donegal Town in the north of Ireland. The course officially opened in 1976 and is considered one of Ireland's finest. The Bluestack Mountains serve as a backdrop for the links, and Donegal Bay and the northwest Atlantic Ocean bracket the peninsula. The on-course views match the off-course in many places around the links, which plays through tall, golden fescue and dunes.

Photographer Rick Hendershot says: "Hole No. 18 looks easy from here, but wait until you get to that green."
