Sebonack Golf Course ☆ Follow

Sebonack Golf Club opened in 2006 and was designed by Jack Nicklaus and Tom Doak. Situated on 300 acres in Southampton, NY, the course neighbors the historic National Golf Links of America and Shinnecock Hills Golf Course. The course is a par 72 that stretches to just over 7220 yards. Sebonack features holes with panoramic views of Long Island's Great Peconic Bay and Cold Spring Pond, along with rolling fairways, expansive bunkers, waste dunes, and undulating greens that present tricky swales and burrows.

Jack Nicklaus and Tom Doak, two designers with dramatically different styles, have used the natural contours and features of the land to create a unique look. The result is a natural-looking links style course that features wide, undulating playing areas, waste dunes, rough-hewn expansive bunkers and large greens with plenty of challenging movement. The greens are undulating in the extreme at times, and approach shots are almost always to a green with a false front which means you have to get all the way to the pin if you want to get onto the short stuff.

Sebonack hosted the 2013 U.S. Women's Open, the first time the championship had been played on Long Island and the first in the greater New York City area since 1987. Inbee Park won her second U.S. Women's Open title four strokes ahead of runner-up I.K. Kim; it was Park's third consecutive major title in 2013.
