Originally
designed by Gene
Hamm, the 18-Hole,
par 72 Magnolia
Course opened to
rave reviews in
1989, and within two
months was ranked as
one of the top 50
courses in the
entire southeastern
United States by
Golf Week.
The Magnolia has
seen a complete
multi-million dollar
redesign, to include
new greens complexes
with Crenshaw Bent
Grass, bunkers and
cart paths.
The result is a
truly fantastic
lay-out with
emphasis on
risk-reward golf.
In an
area that boasts
numerous award
winning courses, the
Magnolia remains a
local favorite. The
course is
characterized by
vast elevation
changes, generous
driving areas, and
spacious challenging
greens. In the
summer edition of
the 2003 Pinehurst
Magazine, the
Magnolia was ranked
as the fifth best
course in the area,
by the 43 PGA Golf
Professionals.
Locals aren’t the
only ones who know a
great course when
they play it. LPGA
players heaped
praise on the course when
the LPGA’s Pinewild
Women’s Championship
was contested in
1995. The
Magnolia has been a
qualifying site for
numerous US Open
Championships, the
US Amateur
Championship, as
well as PGA Tour
School Qualifying.
With the back tees
measuring almost
7,500 yards, we like
to say that the NEW
Magnolia is "NO
BARK, BUT ALL BITE".
