Description
South Carolina Golf explores nearly three hundred years of golf in America's Palmetto State. The story begins with the first golf clubs arriving in Charleston from Scotland in 1739, marking the beginning of a rich history that would see Myrtle Beach become known as the Golf Capital of the World. From the Country Club of Charleston to Kiawah Island's Ocean Course, where the Ryder Cup matches took place in 1991 and the PGA Championships were held in 2012 and 2021, the game has played a significant role in South Carolina. Hilton Head's Harbour Town Golf Links has also hosted numerous high-profile tournaments over the years. The history of golf in South Carolina is told by two authors who provide a detailed account of the sport's development in the state.
