KIAWAH ISLAND - TURTLE POINT
KIAWAH ISLAND, SC
The combination of length and accuracy demanded by this Jack Nicklaus design has led to its selection for several important championships including the Carolinas' Amateur, the Carolinas' PGA, the South Carolina Amateur and the 1990 PGA Cup Matches, the club professionals version of the Ryder Cup. Opened in 1981, Turtle Point is a low-profile design with fairways and green settings blended into the existing landscape. Nowhere is this more evident than along a specatular three-hole stretch woven through rolling sand dunes directly along the Atlantic Ocean.
