Golf at
Waterville golf course
The pleasure
of playing Waterville starts along the “Ring of Kerry”, which you first
take south of Killarney. This course borders on the Atlantic Ocean. In
2003 Waterville was touched in renovation by the famed hand of Tom Fazio. All
holes are framed by dunes and menacing bunkers. It joins Pine Valley and Winged
Foot as one of Fazio’s renovation masterpieces. To quote Mark O'Meara, “
Waterville and Ballybunion helped me realize the dream of a lifetime—victory in
the Open Championship” the following week.
