Golf at Poipu Bay Golf Course (morning tee times both days)
Friday, May 20 - Tournament
Saturday, May 21 - Open play
The 18-hole championship Poipu Bay Golf Course is a Hawaiian Classic situated on 210 oceanfront acres adjacent to Grand Hyatt Kauai. Combining the beauty of nature and the design of Robert Trent Jones Jr., the course is bordered by emerald-green mountains, 30 acres of tropical plants, and ancient places of worship. The 7,123-yard, par-72 course played host to the PGA Grand Slam of Golf from 1994 to 2006, with the most difficult entry requirements of any event in golf: 85 bunkers, five water hazards and wildly varying trade winds. Poipu Bay’s par-four 16th hole was dubbed “the Pebble Beach of the Pacific” by Jones for its sprawling run along rugged coastline. Named one of the “Best 18 Holes in the West” by Los Angeles Magazine, the 16th is one of Poipu Bay’s most scenic and challenging holes, featuring panoramic ocean and mountain vistas with both fairway and green sloping toward the sea. The greens here are Sea Shore Paspalum hybrid (supreme). Along with being more eco-friendly by using less herbicides and water, the grass provides a more consistent putting surface.
