Ocean Ridge (Jaguar's Lair)
Ocean Ridge Plantation (Jaguar's Lair Golf Course): [AS OF 2024, STILL NO SIGN IF AND WHEN THIS COURSE WILL OPEN]. The masterplan for the former 36-hole Angels Trace Golf Links, was to transform the site into a new 18-hole layout with a real estate development alongside. The revamped course, named Jaguar's Lair, would become the fifth of the Ocean Ridge Plantation "Big Cat" golf courses, joining Lion's Paw, Tiger's Eye, Panther's Run and Leopard's Chase. The plan has yet to come to fruition, as of 2024.
If and when completed, Jaguar's Lair would continue to build on the tradition of excellence established by its ferocious, feline sisters. Designed by architect and land planner Tim Cate, the new 18-hole layout would feature all the class and charm of its predecessors, with a few new surprises to challenge and delight golfers.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.
The jaguar is the third largest of the big cat family (Panthera species) after the tiger and the lion. It is only found in the Americas, with its present-day range extending from the southern United States (now only Arizona) and Mexico, across much of Central America, and south to Paraguay and northern Argentina.
Women’s (British) Open: the last women’s major championship of the season is hosted by Royal Porthcawl GC. It’s the first time this fabulous seaside links course has hosted the event (July 31-Aug 3).
Walker Cup: the 50th playing of this prestigious men’s amateur event sees the GB&I go head-to-head against the defending USA team at Cypress Point Club, California (Sept 6-7).

Lottie Woad: 21-year-old Woad burst onto the professional scene in July, with wins in the Women’s Irish Open (as an amateur) and three weeks later in the Women’s Scottish Open (as a professional). She nearly picked-up a major championship, placing third in The Evian in the same month.
Pádraig Harrington: the ever-likeable Irishman added the (British) Senior Open Championship title to his stellar array of tournament successes. His win came on Sunningdale’s spectacular Old Course. Harrington had already bagged the U.S. Senior Open title in June this year.
