About this course

The Course at Sewanee is a nine-hole golf course on the campus of the University of the South in Sewanee, Tennessee, established in 1915. It was originally laid out by Bishop Albion W. Knight without formal design training, using mules and university football players for construction. In 2013, architects Gil Hanse and Jim Wagner renovated the course, preserving the original routing while rebuilding all nine green complexes, bunkers and tees. The course sits atop the Cumberland Plateau and serves as home to Sewanee's men's and women's golf teams while remaining open to public play.

Sweetens Cove Golf Club

South Pittsburg, TN · 15 mi away

Sweetens Cove in South Pittsburg, Tennessee, is a nine-hole course designed by Rob Collins and Tad King and opened in 2014. It replaced a flat, unremarkable municipal layout on the same piece of ground near the Tennessee River. The design moves an enormous amount of dirt into ridges, punchbowls and Biarritz-style greens, with the greens averaging far larger than normal and set up to feed shots from wide of the target. Tee locations change from day to day, so the nine can play very differently on a second loop. There is no formal clubhouse and the course is walking only. It is open to public play, with tee times limited by the size of the property.

Bear Trace at Tims Ford

Winchester, TN · 19 mi away

Bear Trace at Tims Ford is a state park golf course in Winchester, Tennessee, built on a peninsula surrounded by Tims Ford Lake. It opened in 1999 as part of the Bear Trace collection of Tennessee courses designed by Jack Nicklaus. The front holes roll across former pastureland in a links-like style before the layout transitions into wooded terrain dominated by large oak trees. The lake is visible from most holes and comes into play on several of them, and the course plays to a par of 71 at around 6,764 yards from the back tees. Operated by Tennessee State Parks, Bear Trace at Tims Ford is open to the public year round, with on-site lodging, a snack bar, practice facilities, and club rentals available.
