The second major championship of the year brings us to the Ocean Course at Kiawah Island. Just 30 miles from Charleston, S.C., the Ocean Course is a bucket list destination for many amateur golfers around the world. The beautiful windswept landscape first came to prominence when it was built for the 1991 Ryder Cup by Pete and Alice Dye. That Ryder Cup was a memorable one for viewers as the Americans won after Bernhard Langer failed to make a six-foot putt on the 18th hole for the Europeans. It’s hard to believe he ever missed a putt with the way he is still playing on the Champions Tour.
