The Patch
Rich in History
Built in 1926 by David Oglivie, “The Patch” refers to the golf course’s original land as a nursery, and is home to where the legendary PGA Tour Player, Jim Dent got his start. Many of the Augusta community learned to play golf at The Patch, with several of its members becoming revered caddies at the famed Masters tournament.
The Renovation Project
Augusta, GA has a rich history of military service and is the location for Ft. Gordon, a major Army installation. Already recognized as the mecca for golf, Augusta is honoring these two major qualities to bring a new destination golf course to the city, built by veterans. The Augusta Municipal Golf Course will be constructed as a signature, fully ADA compliant golf course designed as one of the most accessible golf facilities in the nation.
