Heathland Golf Course
Legends Resort, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, USA
The par 71 Heathland Course, designed by Tom Doak, is a return to the grand old traditions of the game. It has been distinctly molded in the image of the British Isles and Irish links courses, with holes reminiscent of familiar links like St. Andrews, Lahinch and Cruden Bay. Most of the holes are without high vegetation, providing a visual presentation like no other course in the area. The challenge and difficulty of this course comes primarily from the unobstructed breeze that wafts constantly over the course, and the strategically placed bunkers and lush, deep rough that closely border et fairways. Many of the greenside bunkers are deep and require creative shot making to escape. Rated one of the “Top 10 New Resort Courses in the World” by Golf Magazine in 1990, Heathland's design is challenging to players of all abilities.
