COURSE INFORMATION
One of Columbus Country Club's greatest assets is the golf course, built in 1907 by Tom Bendelow and re-designed by famed Donald Ross. Our course has been newly restored by Kevin Hargrave under the Master Plan of Keith Foster. Columbus CC has the most unique land features and routing amongst surrounding clubs in the area. CCC has hosted three professional events, including the 1964 PGA Championship, won by Bobby Nichols over the likes of legends Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer.
Spreading out over 7,000 yards, the historic Par 72 Championship Course at Columbus Country Club has seen some of the game's greatest players grace its fairways. Host to the 1964 PGA Championship won by Bobby Nichols in thrilling fashion over two of golf's icons, Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer, the Donald Ross design has been drawing rave reviews since its inception.
