Saturday, August 29
Turtle Point at Kiawah Island Golf Resort
Saturday Golf

Saturday golf is available at TURTLE POINT COURSE

After a comprehensive nine-month renovation led by Jack Nicklaus and members of his architectural team, Turtle Point reopened in late 2016 to rave player reviews. Sweeping improvements included regrassing with Paspalum, rebuilding of all bunkers, laser-leveling all tee boxes and reestablishing irrigation throughout the course.

Turtle Point exemplifies Jack Nicklaus’ firm design philosophy to “make the player use his mind ahead of his muscles—to control his emotions sufficiently to really think through his options before drawing a club from the bag.”

TIME: Tee times from 11:00AM

COST: No Charge for panelists

GUEST POLICY:

  • Panelists may invite one guest for golf
  • Guest Fee = $60
