Special course with rich history, very challenging off the tee, and commands respect around the greens. Yes, some weak holes but none that are remotely offensive. I firmly believe QHC is a fantastic course and an excellent championship test…

Awesome Donald Ross design. Very tough track even though visually it may not look like it.

Really enjoyed my round out here at Trump Charlotte. The tee boxes were burnt out as it is the time of season where they do maintenance. A little steep on the rate for a visitor.
