Who designed Shoal Creek Golf Course??
Bob Cupp (when he was senior designer for Jack Nicklaus) designed Shoal Creek and the course opened in 1977, hosting several top-flight competitions since then. Buddy Alexander won the U.S. Amateur Championship in 1986 whilst Lee Trevino and Wayne Grady won two majors here – picking up the coveted PGA Wanamaker Trophy in 1984 and 1990.
Is Shoal Creek worthy of a senior major championship??
I do believe Shoal Creek is certainly worthy of a Senior U.S. Open championship or another U.S. Women’s Open. I do not see it hosting another men’s major as it simply does not have enough length at 7400 yards and the fairways lack interest.
