Greg Norman Course

Length: 7,332
Rating: 75.5
Slope: 145
The Greg Norman Course incorporates the natural undulations of the Potomac River Valley as it meanders along the Potomac River. The rolling landscape of this design winds through a mature hardwood forest and along rock outcroppings. Those natural elements combine with historic sites on the 3rd and 4th holes to form the course’s distinct character, using Norman’s “Least Disturbance Approach” to design. It also includes a demanding four-hole stretch dubbed “the hardest mile in golf” by its creator.
Capable of hosting championship competition, the Norman Course remains enjoyable for everyday golfers, with tees fitting a multitude of skill levels, including the memorable “island tees” on the opening hole.
