Wade Hampton Golf Club

18-Hole CourseOpened in 1987. Design by Tom Fazio.

Each of the nines begins with a par 5 measuring over five hundred yards. The greens are generally big, quick and well protected by bunkers.

The fairways are well bunkered and offer nice views of the woodlands and hills in the background. The club takes its name from a colorful.

scion of the family that once owned the property, a Confederate general who. went on to serve as governor of and senator from South Carolina and.

to hold a high government post under Grover Cleveland. The course itself is much more recent, and is notable for the way it is integrated into the surroundings.

It features some very fine and scenic par 3s. One of these is the 17th, the nearly two hundred yards of which play down to a green set between a pair of trees.

Also worthy of mention is the demanding 16th, which is set between two trees. The 18-hole course is one of the most challenging in the state.
