Tigers Eye golf links logo Tiger's Eye Golf Links, Ocean Ridge Plantation's crown jewel, is an upscale daily-fee 18 hole golf course carved from a virgin pine and hardwood forest in Sunset Beach, N.C. Designed by golf course architect and land planner Tim Cate, Tiger's Eye is one of three championship layouts at Ocean Ridge Plantation.

Cate and Ed Gore Sr., the visionary behind Ocean Ridge Plantation, have been collaborating on the planning, designing and routing of Tiger's Eye for the past several years. Cate took advantage of the land's setting, giving each hole its own unique personality.

Tigers Eye golf linksThe varying challenges of the greens mirror the classic look and feel of Pinehurst. The generous, undulated, fast- paced greens, which resemble warped plywood, yield numerous pin placements that are obscured from view and guarded by water and/or sand hazards. The mature long leaf pine groves also add to the Pinehurst look of Tiger's Eye, but the mature, dense hardwood forest that lines the fairways and encircles the greens remind golfers that they're in the Lowcountry.
