The Legends (RTJ)
The Legends Country Club's RTJ course is a testament to the signature style of its creator, Robert Trent Jones. If you consider Jones a legend, you’ll recognize the challenging penal aspects of the course, including tight, tree-lined fairways and large bunkers.
You’ll also notice his tendency toward the adventurous: Your first par three during the round will be a 140-yard carry over a pond to a large green. If that doesn’t do enough to get your adrenaline flowing, you can wait until No. 8 a few holes down the line, where the best players will be required to make a similar shot across 210 yards of water.
The longest tees combine for a final yardage just longer than 7,000 yards. The club features another nine, “The Ridge,” which was designed by Gary Kern.
