The most popular golf courses on Instagram, per data

Most golfers love sharing the scenery of the course they're playing, and these are the most popular ones on Instagram

Who doesn't love gawking over an incredible golf course on Instagram?

In the age of social media, either playing or viewing a round of golf has become much more than just scoring low. It’s now about bragging to your friends, showing off the scenic surroundings of the course you’re at.

Go ahead and open up your Instagram app and you’ll notice a slew of pals are probably posting pictures and videos of the courses they’re visiting. Just like grabbing hot dogs and a beer at the turn, posting on social media about a golf course has seemingly become routine.

We’re all guilty of doing it, so it’s only natural to wonder which courses are the ones getting the most love on Instagram, with my personal favorite being Chambers Bay (home of the 2015 U.S. Open).
