Lassing Pointe

Located just a mile to the southwest of Union, the Lassing Pointe golf course is a Michael Hurdzan design that first opened its doors to Bluegrass State golfers in 1993. In terms of early tournament play, it was used to host the Kentucky Open in 1996 and 2000, along with the regional NCAA championship in 2002 and 2004.

It’s not the longest of courses, measuring 6,724 yards from the back tees, but what it may lack in length it makes up for in challenge, with a great mix of wide open and tree-lined fairways, elevated tee boxes and raised greens – all of which you might expect to encounter on a course strategically designed by Michael Hurdzan.

Water comes in to play on several holes, none more so than the par three 14th and the par four 18th: it’s all carry from tee to a shallow putting surface on the former, while the latter plays to an enormously long home green which is set on a peninsula, across the lake from the 14th green.

World Top 100 Golf Courses

The latest ranking of the Top 100 Golf Courses in the World serves as the ultimate global golf bucket list. Most members of our World Top 100 Panel are seasoned golfers, each playing 20-30 of these courses annually while travelling extensively over decades to form their opinions on others. We recognise that opinions vary—even among our panel members. Rankings are subjective, and there are undoubtedly 50 or more courses in the UK and USA alone that could easily fit onto this list.
