Sun City West, AZ — Cabot Links, part of Cabot Highlands in Inverness, Nova Scotia, is a Rod Whitman design celebrated as Canada's first authentic links course. Whitman, known for his minimalist, hands-on approach, crafted a course that seamlessly integrates with the natural, sand-based terrain of the former Inverness coal mine site, with the Atlantic Ocean serving as a dramatic backdrop. His design philosophy emphasizes letting the land speak, resulting in a course with abundant nuance and intrigue. Signature holes include the par-4 6th, often considered the course's most memorable, and the par-3 14th, a picturesque hole inspired by Pebble Beach's iconic 7th. Opened in 2012, Cabot Links quickly garnered international acclaim, being dubbed the world's 'Best New Course' by Golf Digest. Its slow and methodical construction allowed for a design that is both challenging and visually stunning, offering a true links golf experience that is etched into the land rather than imposed upon it. This course is a must-play for those seeking a pure, traditional golf experience amidst breathtaking coastal scenery.
