Overview
Jack Nicklaus’ design group and Tom Clark collaborated on the addition of a second nine and renovated the existing nine holes (previously called Westham Golf Club) before the course re-opened in 2015. The layout tips out at 7,020 yards with significant fairway width, and though the course boasts its finishing hole as its “signature hole,” our panelists compliment the short par-3 11th hole with its small green protected by three menacing bunkers.

“A public course that is fair but challenging. Bent grass greens rolled true and accepted shots. The bermuda fairways were generous in width. The tee options make the course playable for all levels of golfers. The back tees will challenge top players."

“Magnolia Green Golf Club in suburban Richmond is a solid public access course designed by the Nicklaus/Clark partnership. The fairways are mostly generous and the greens are large and undulating. There are numerous short holes (reachable par 4s and 5s) with some really long ones intermixed. But because the course is not tight, the big hitter can have fun going for some shots, and there are birdies to be had. The green surrounds are generally playable, but the bunkers are deep. The designers did a very good job in the placement and orientation of fairway bunkers and mounds, requiring some strategic thinking on most holes. Although the course plays through a housing development, the homes rarely intrude. Unfortunately, the greens run too slow for the contours to be interesting, and a monetary infusion in the maintenance budget could help a course that is rough around the edges."
