Hilton Head National
Hilton Head National Golf Club: originally a 27-hole layout involving the National, Weed and Player nines, the layout was trimmed to 18 holes in 2009. Most of the holes on the former Player-nine made way for an RV resort. The layout now comprises a front-nine designed by Bobby Weed (formerly the Weed-nine), and a back-nine designed by Gary Player (formerly called the National-nine).
The course sits amongst quiet woodland, free of any real estate lining its tree-lined fairways. In this natural setting of tall pine trees and quiet lagoons, pleasantly undulating fairways deliver you from nicely elevated tees to the many elevated greens. With a few water holes in the mix, as well as excellent maintenance standards throughout, this is one of Hilton's Heads "special" courses according to many local golfers.
The closing par-4 18th brings you to a large hour-glass green, which previously formed a double-green with the now retired closing hole of the former Player-nine. The shorter par-4 9th (the closing hole on the Weed-nine) is also a belter.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.

Hilton Head National, and its neighbour the Old South Golf Links, are located on the last bit of mainland before crossing the two bridges (Karl Bowers Bridge and J. Wilton Graves Bridge) onto Hilton Head Island. The island is renowned for its superb Atlantic Ocean beaches and many excellent golf courses. A really wonderful place for a golf vacation.

The Masters: The 88th Masters Tournament at Augusta National sees LIV golfer Jon Rahm defend his title against the world’s best. Pressing hard will be world No.1 and 2022 champion Scottie Scheffler and world No.2 Rory McIlroy (April 11-14).
Chevron Championship: the women’s major championship season gets underway for the second year at its new Carlton Woods home outside Houston, Texas. World No.2 Lilia Vu defends (April 18-21).
Nelly Korda: records a perfect start to 2024 with four wins out of her last four appearances on the LPGA Tour, a feat last achieved by Lorena Ochoa in 2008. Korda's win at the T-Mobile Match Play brought up her 12th LPGA Tour victory.
Scottie Scheffler: narrowly missed out on matching Nelly Korda’s three-in-three, when he placed second at the Houston Open. This followed back-to-back wins at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and The Players. Like Korda, he remains comfortably ahead in the official world golf rankings.
Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.
Jim Fazio's original layout was much changed to create a modern Ryder Cup course ... now one of the Eternal City's (and Italy's) most revered.
