Did you know?

In 1989, course designer Bill Robinson bought the Rhodo Dunes golf course in Florence, Oregon, which was laid out in 1963 as a nine-hole course. He redesigned the course, expanding it to 18 holes and renaming it Ocean Dunes in the process. He also bought a house overlooking the course, which became home for a time.

In the 1990s Robinson learned about, and checked out a coastal piece of land 65 miles to the north of Florence, in a place called Bandon. He inspected the gorse-ridden terrain, but wasn't sold on the idea of building a golf course there. Sometime later, the plot was bought by greeting-card entrepreneur Mike Keiser for $2million, and transformed into today's Bandon Dunes golf resort ... now with five top-flight championship courses.
