Sea Island’s Seaside Course on St. Simons Island in Georgia – which is the main course of two being played this week at the PGA Tour 2023 RSM Classic – was originally opened in 1929, and extensively renovated in 1999.
The original design was created by Harry S. Colt & Charles Alison. It has undergone several modifications throughout the years. Tom Fazio redone it in 1999.
This week, the RSM Classic will feature two courses. One of them is The Seaside. Each player will play one round each on the Plantation Course and the Seaside Course during the first two rounds.
