Venue

Bandon Trails

OR, United States

Bandon Trails was designed by Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw and opened on June 1, 2005. The course features 18 holes with a par of 73 and plays to 6,765 yards. Bandon Trails differs from its siblings in that no holes are routed along the Pacific Ocean; the course meanders through dunes, meadows, and forest land. There are three links-like holes, eight "meadow" holes, and seven weaving through the trees. The course starts in serious sand dunes, then turns inward toward meadows and dense Oregon rainforest, climbing toward an upper section at holes nine through 13. The 14th hole is a love-it-or-hate-it par 4 to a thumb of a green personally fashioned by Crenshaw that can be driven with an unerring tee shot off a high bluff. The course is widely considered the best "shot makers" course at the resort. In 2009, Golf Magazine ranked Bandon Trails thirty-third in its list of the 50 best courses built in the last 50 years. Bandon Trails was used as the second course for the stroke-play portion of a major amateur championship event. The course hosts tournaments and events including the annual Bandon Dunes Championship for collegiate golf teams.
