New Albany Country Club

The Jack Nicklaus signature design threading through central Ohio's rolling farmland demands precision over power, with deceptively wide fairways that funnel toward well-guarded greens protected by strategic bunkering. Water comes into play on half the holes, including the spectacular par-3 17th that plays entirely over a pond to a peninsula green. While the front nine eases you in with generous landing areas, the back nine reveals Nicklaus's surgical touch, rewarding course management over heroics.
