About this course
Tennessee National, carved into the rolling hills of Loudon, Tennessee, represents Greg Norman's enduring vision for championship golf in the shadow of the Smoky Mountains. A modern design, the course boldly utilizes the existing contours, presenting a challenging yet playable layout defined by generous fairways and strategically placed bunkers that penalize wayward shots. The course favors power off the tee, but demands astute decision-making and deft touch around the undulating, bentgrass greens. Beyond the course itself, Tennessee National fosters a community rooted in a shared passion for the game. With a strong membership base drawn from across the Southeast, it’s known as a gathering place where camaraderie thrives. It is whispered that friendly rivalries on the course often extend to spirited debates over the merits of regional barbecue styles in the clubhouse afterward. While not yet a host of major professional championships, Tennessee National has solidified its place as a respected test of golf and a valued asset to the local community. It offers an authentic golfing experience, delivering Norman's signature brand of strategic play amidst the serene beauty of East Tennessee. The club is also known for it's annual "Clash at the Creek" member-guest tournament, a highly competitive and social event drawing players from across the region, further cementing its reputation as a premier destination for golf enthusiasts.
