DAY 2
Up early for breakfast in the hotel restaurant and then board the bus for our transfer to Pinehurst, a 90 minute drive through the picturesque North Carolina countryside. We’ll check in to the historic Carolina Hotel with its southern mansion appearance and warm hospitality and then prepare for our first round of golf on Pinehurst No. 8, the course was opened in 1996 to commemorate Pinehurst’s centennial year. The course was host to the 1996 & 1997 PGA Club Pro Championship. Fine tune your game with accompanying tour pro’s who will provide assistance pre and post your game if required. And you don’t have to play like a pro to participate in the daily competition! After your round, we’ll freshen up and prepare for a delicious welcome dinner with beverages included.
DAY 3
Enjoy a fully cooked breakfast buffet in The Grill Restaurant and relax with the morning at leisure - a wide array of recreational facilities are available including the boutique spa, mist pool or enjoy a cycle through the manicured gardens. This afternoon we will tackle the famed No. 2 course, designed by Donald Ross in 1907 it has crowned greens and carefully placed bunkers. A strategic layout that tests both the long and short game. It is also top 10 in the country, and site of more championships than any other course in the country, including the 2005 U.S. Open Championship. The US Open will return in 2014. A caddy is provided for your convenience. This evening we’ll dine in the Grill Room or one of the other five restaurants in the Pinehurst Village at leisure (included in your package and your choice).
DAY 4
Following breakfast we will prepare for a morning round at Pinehurst No. 4. After receiving a facelift in 2000 by Tom Fazio paying homage to Donald Ross’ original design the number 4 course emerges from the shadow of it’s big brother the number 2 course. Pot bunkers feature heavily within the layout reminiscent of a seaside links course. The greens are a worthy challenge with smallish upside down tea saucer like designs. This afternoon we’ll board the coach and transfer to Aiken, South Carolina. On this 4 hour drive, refreshments and videos are available for your comfort. This evening we check into Hotel Aiken—right in the heart of the Masters festivities. A complimentary cocktail hour will be hosted before your dinner at leisure.

DAY 6
The traditional Par 3 Tournament on the Wednesday is a real highlight for spectators and possibly the best day of the week before the players get serious.
