The TGC 2019 simulation introduces Short Beach 9 Hole CT, crafted by designer FhrerMelGibson. This virtual course draws inspiration from the real Short Beach Golf Course located at 1 Dorne Dr, Stratford, Connecticut. Established in 1988 by architects Geoffrey Cornish and Brian Silva, the original course offers a 9-hole, par-27 layout stretching 1,359 yards. Featuring rye grass fairways and bent grass greens, it provides a links-style experience accessible to the public year-round.
Situated along the scenic Long Island Sound, Short Beach Golf Course offers players picturesque coastal views and a refreshing sea breeze that adds a unique challenge to each round. The course’s proximity to the shoreline means golfers often contend with varying wind conditions, enhancing the strategic aspect of play. Beyond the fairways, the surrounding Short Beach Park boasts amenities like picnic areas, playgrounds, and courts for various sports, making it a comprehensive recreational destination. The natural beauty of the area, combined with its well-maintained facilities, ensures a memorable experience for golfers and visitors alike.
