Hans Merensky Golf Course, South Africa: When people here refer to a scary 15-footer, odds are they're not describing a lengthy putt. Cut through Kruger National Park, this course counts giant crocodiles among its hazards. As you go about your round, look for baby springbok dangling from the trees. Leopards leave them hanging. Hippos yawn in the greenside ponds. Though injuries are rare, fatalities have happened. In 1998, a bull elephant stomped to death a golfer on the 16th green.
