Strong’s course and a notorious green

One caption identifies the small “2 or 20” green and describes bunkers that once helped keep balls from rolling down its hill. Those bunkers were subsequently removed. The surviving image records how the challenge of an individual green changed, beyond the broader sequence of architectural credits.¹
