Detailed description of Whittle Springs Golf Course

Whittle Springs Golf Course is a Public 18 holes golf course located in Knoxville, Tennessee.

Whittle Springs Golf Course first opened for play in 1932.

This deceiving course looks easier than it plays. There are no sand bunkers or water hazards, but the greens vary in undulation, and some of the subtle breaks can be very hard to read.  

The signature hole is #7, a 385-yard, par 4, featuring a dogleg left fairway and requiring an approach shot to a severely sloping green.

Par for the course is 70. From the back tees, the course plays to 5,723 yards. From the forward tees, the course measures 4,781 yards with a par of 71. The longest hole on the course is # 18, a par-5 that plays to 515 yards. The shortest hole on the course is # 15, a par-3 that plays to 145 yards from the back tees.

Watch out for # 7, a 405-yard par-4 challenge and the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole is # 16, a 265 yard par-4.
