| <td>Golf Digest calls the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail "the best thing | |
| ever done for public golf," and Grand National's 54 holes are the crown | |
| jewels of the Trail. <br> | |
| <br> | |
| The Links Course was named by Golf Digest as the 2nd best new public course | |
| in America in 1993. The Lake Course was named by Golf Digest as the 4th | |
| best new public course in America in 1993. The entire complex at Grand | |
| National was listed by Golf Digest's Places To Play as three of the nation's | |
| 40 Super Valuecourses. Grand National, by all reports, was the single | |
| greatest site for a golf complex Robert Trent Jones, Sr. had ever seen. | |
| <br> | |
| <br> | |
| Built on 600-acre Lake Saughahatchee, 32 of the 54 holes drape along its | |
| filigreed shores. The cornerstone of the complex is the Links Course, | |
| which is without a single weakness. The par-four 18th is, without a doubt, | |
| the strongest finishing hole on the Trail. The drive must carry a corner | |
| of the Lake, while the approach is played to a shallow pedestal green | |
| shored up by boulders. <br> | |
| <br> | |
| With 12 holes hugging the shore, Grand National's Lake Course is every | |
| bit as scenic as the Links. Not only is the quartes of par threes on the | |
| Lake Course as good as any in the nation, the 230-yard, island green 15th | |
| may be the single prettiest hold on the Trail. The Short Course at Grand | |
| National is a thing of beauty, with more than half the holes touching | |
| the lake. This 18-hole course of one-shoters might be the finest anywhere | |
| on the planet, according to some golf writers. <br> | |
| <br> | |
| The LPGA Tournament of Champions was played at Grand National on October | |
| 5th-11th. The $750,000 purse event brought the champions of the tour like | |
| Nancy Lopez, Laura Davies, Annika Sorenstam and Karrie Webb to the Opelika-Auburn | |
| area. The tournament benefitted Breast Cancer Research through donations | |
| to the Susan G. Komen Funds. <br> | |
