TPC Myrtle Beach

The reputation of TPC courses is supposedly good. This course needs work on its greens, as they are lacking in a puttable surface. The fairways are very, very tight, so more grass would be helpful. You’re better off in the first cut. The course is very fun and a challenge for all.

We learned that the course had been completely overseeded when we checked in and it was recommended by the person checking us in that we spend more warm up time on the putting green than hitting balls on the range. The reason for his recommendation became very evident when we found that the greens were probably running 6-7.
Out tee time was 10:40. We found that the fairways on the front nine had not been cur leaving grass at least one inch high.
The stater informed us that it was cart path only on at least four holes 1,10,16,18. Also on the holes carts were allowed, the fairway exits were as much as 30 -40 yards from the greens. These conditions slowed the pace of play. Our senior couples foursome waited on a number of tees and fairways.
Had information on any of these conditions been available during the booking process, we probably would not have booked the time.

We were anticipating a great experience playing the TPC course. Unfortunately that didn’t happen. Being advised at the pro shop when checking in, that we should spend our warm up time on the putting green rather than hitting balls on the range didn’t prepare us for the slowness of the “over seeded greens” on the course. Added to that, we were advised by the starter that we wouldn’t get much roll on the over seeded fairways. What he didn’t share was the fairways and tees on the front nine and some of the back nine had not been mowed, leaving a grass height of at least one inch. Not what we expected from a TPC course. Additionally, there was no information available prior to booking that a number of the holes would be cart path only; 1, 10, 16, 18 and the signs directing carts to leave the fairways were as much as 30 yards from the green. Even with that our senior couples foursome was waiting on a number of holes to tee off or hit our approach shots. More and better information on current course conditions should have been available prior to booking.
We played the Bear’s Club in Hilton Head two days prior. It too had been overseeded but was much more playable for quite a bit lower fees on the weekend prior.

I have played this course every year, as it is one of my favorite courses in the area. It is a very challenging, beautiful layout. This year, however, this course has not been maintained properly. I can understand the greens being slow as it had rained earlier in the week, but the tee boxes were not cut at all. It was as if we were teeing off in the rough. And the fairways also were not cut — you couldn’t tell where the fairway ended and the rough began!
If they want to charge TPC greens fees, they must maintain the course as such.

Very fun but challenging round we had. Great conditions, beautiful greens. Staff was very welcoming and knowledgeable. Allan especially with his "stodgy" charm! :)

Me and four friends were on golf trip to Myrtle and were not that fussy with where we played however wanted to have one round at a high end course. TPC Myrtle Beach was our selection and we were blown away. Couse conditions were exceptional, course layout was challenging and fun, each and every hole had the beauty of a postcard. Never pressured from behind nor held up, felt like we were the only group on the course. Loved everything about it!!

This was my wife and mine second time playing golf at TPC Myrtle Beach staff is top notch no other course i have played has staff like TPC they will talk to you answer any questions offer advice for on the course they have a photographer on the first tee to take your picture if you would like a souvenir. Thank you for a great experience.

What a great track. As soon as you get to the tee box on hole 1, you know you’re in for a challenge. I played from the tips and it was very challenging but also very fair. The staff was very nice and the course was awesome. Can’t wait to go back.

The course was in great shape and playing condition. However, the value for the price isn't there. Would rather play two other courses that have similar conditions for the same price. Glad to have played it, but would never return.
