For the first time this year, Dalhousie Golf Club in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, was among the season-opening venues in college golf. Dalhousie hosted the Golfweek Collegiate Kickoff on Sept. 3-5, testing a 12-team field over its undulating layout.
Dalhousie, a Gary Nicklaus design that opened in 2002, appears among Golfweek’s Best Private Courses in Missouri and the Golfweek’s Best list of residential courses in the U.S. The course has hosted championships at every level, from the Missouri Amateur to the Missouri Valley Conference Championship to Gateway PGA-sanctioned events to the AJGA’s prestigious Rolex Tournament of Champions.
LSU went 20 under for 54 holes to win the Golfweek event, and also claimed the individual medalist in Alex Price, who was 11 under.
“It’s a really good golf course,” LSU head coach Chuck Winstead said of Dalhousie at the end of the weekend. “It’s solid tee to green, good layout, I think it’s a really, really good test.”
Take a look at some scenes from the tournament.
