Experience Donald Ross Memorial

18 Legendary Holes in One

  • Donald Ross Memorial
    Open through October 6

Comprised of a selection of the greatest holes ever designed by one of the sport's greatest course designers, the Donald Ross Memorial is the golfing equivalent of a "greatest hits" compilation. The course represents a labor of love, started as an inspiration, led to years of travel, play and heated deliberation, and culminated into one of the country's most satisfying courses. A round of golf here looks, feels, and plays every bit like a true Donald Ross design.

In 2020 the BOYNE Golf team, in conjunction with Michigan-based course designer Ray Hearn, began a series of renovations to the Donald Ross Memorial. With the technology available today we can now better replicate Ross’ original designs than when the Donald Ross Memorial was originally developed in 1989. Follow our progress

Hole 1

Par 4 • 383 yards • A replica of Hole #6 | Seminole Golf Club; North Palm Beach, Florida | The hole is a masterpiece of deception. Bunkers along the left of the fairway force a player to drive out to the right, thus lengthening the hole. Cross bunkering some 50 yards in front of the putting surface then becomes more of a threat, often resulting in an approach that ends up either short of the green, to the left, or both.
