A course built primarily for 2012 worlds. It's short, tight, and technical but is in a unique and enjoyable setting. Don't let the distances and short par 4s fool you, this course can be tricky. There is a birdie on every hole if you hit your perfect line, however, the 288 MA1 World's field averaged just a little under 56 for a par 57 course.

There are arrows under each basket pointing the direction to the next tee along with pink/magenta next tee minis on trees near baskets. Also, where possible, are minis indicating 100' and 200' to the basket being played.

Location

Thomas McAlister Winget Park 12235 Winget Road Charlotte, 28278 North Carolina
Local Directions:

Take I-485 exit 4 towards fort mill (Rte 160, Steele Creek). In 3.7 miles, turn right onto Sledge Rd (at traffic light), then a right onto Winget Rd. The park is at the very end of the street on the right. Parking is next to the 2nd gate by the soccer fields. Walk behind 18's basket across the path and turn left into the woods for tee #1. The transition between 14 and 15 is a little longer than desired; from 14's basket, walk towards the tot lot/swing sets to 15's tee (there are bathrooms/trash cans/large pavilion/water/etc along this transition).

If coming from center city Charlotte (I-77), take exit 1A (Westinghouse) west for about 2 miles, turn left onto Steele Creek (Rte 160) and follow above directions.
