Golfers are welcomed to Whistler by their first views
of the Whistler Golf Club. Fittingly, the first championship course
in the area was designed by Arnold Palmer, the King of Golf himself.
His beautiful design that opened in 1982 has since been joined by
three courses designed by three of the world´s leading golf
architects turning Whistler into a golfer´s mecca that has
no equal.
In 1993, on the benchlands at the base of Blackcomb
Mountain, Robert Trent Jones Jr. created an alpine masterpiece.
The Chateau Whistler Golf Club was immediately recognized as the
best new course in Canada by the golf world´s bible, Golf
Digest Magazine.
The following year, 25 minutes north of Whistler at
Pemberton, award-winning architect, Bob Cupp's Big Sky Golf and
Country Club was the runner-up for the prestigious honour.
To make the remarkable foursome complete, the Golf Digest
recognized Nicklaus North Golf Course as the Best New Canadian Course
in 1996. The addition of the only course in the world to bear the
name of the finest golfer the game has known, Jack Nicklaus, confirmed
the Sea-to-Sky region as one of the finest golf destinations in
the world.
