--New program added in addition to popular Family Tee program and Special Rates after 2pm
KIAWAH ISLAND, SC – Continuing its ongoing efforts to develop innovative
ways to grow the game of golf, Kiawah Island Golf Resort is testing a
new program this summer to target three hours or less for a round of
golf. From July 9, 2011 to August 31, 2011, the resort will set aside
tee times on its courses for singles, twosomes and threesomes with the
goal for golfers to finish their 18-hole round in less than three hours.
“One of the major challenges that keeps many golfers off the course is
the amount of time it takes to play 18 holes,” said Brian Gerard, Kiawah
Island Golf Resort’s Director of Golf. “In response, we’ve developed
this test program aimed at getting players around the course in less
than three hours. We have set aside either the first times in the
morning or reserved early afternoon times for players starting at
12:30pm to allow for quick play. The resort is asking that players who
feel they will not be able to meet this target time to book tee times
outside the “Three Hour Golf” timeframe.”

Various accounts of the history of golf suggest that the term greens fee, the amount paid in order to access a particular golf course, was born in the state of South Carolina.
Remnants of the Old South still linger throughout the Palmetto State, in the form of confederate flags and exclusive country clubs with little or no diversity, whether it be racial or economic, in the make-up of their memberships. But somewhere between the formation of South Carolina’s first golf club, South Carolina Golf Club which utilized “Harleston Green” in downtown Charleston, in 1876 and today, the state has developed a reputation as a prime destination for public-access golf.
