Ocean Ridge Plantation (Leopard's Chase)
Leopard’s Chase was the latest big cat to be released at the impressive 72-hole Ocean Ridge Plantation residential development when it opened for play in 2007. Lion’s Paw, a Willard Byrd design, was first to appear here in 1991, followed four years later by the Tim Cate-designed Panther’s Run.
The same architect – a former associate of Byrd – completed the Tiger’s Eye course at the start of the new millennium, before returning shortly after to set out Leopard’s Chase, the longest and toughest of the facility’s four 18-hole layouts.
Highlight features on Leopard’s Chase include the peninsula green on the 190-yard 4th and the large fairway bunker that threatens on the 425-yard 5th. On the back nine, the fairway flirts with a couple of wetland areas on the par five 11th and waterfalls frame the home green on the par four 18th.
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.
