January 24, 2016Long regarded as one of the Lowcountry’s most demanding tests, all 18 greens of the Fazio Course were enhanced by replanting them with resilient Diamond Zoysia grass. The result is a consistency to the course’s sweeping green surfaces that will assist golfers in negotiating this par-70 gem. With only two par fives, Fazio’s challenge is defined by a series of long par fours fraught with yawning bunkers and strategically placed water hazards. The course’s middle tee settings, playing to just over 6,200 yards, are more accommodating to the recreational player. For lower handicappers, however, the exhilaration of taking on the Fazio Course at its unrelenting best is an opportunity not to be wasted.
