Bethpage State Park: Demystifying the People's Open Course
Fairmont Turnberry Isle: Turning Heads in South Florida
Grande Oaks Country Club: How to access the private course made famous as Bushwood Country Club in Caddyshack

Not only will you learn about Bethpage Black, site of this year's US Open, but we share the secrets of how to get a tee time on this A.W. Tillinghast classic. Even more changes have taken place since the 2000 Open under the oversight of master architect Rees Jones, who shares his thoughts on the course and this year's championship.

Plus, some red-hot deals on some of Ireland's finest courses and an exclusive travel offer for Golf Odyssey subscribers from Kiawah Island Golf Resort!

Fresh off a reported $150 million renovation, the Fairmont Turnberry Isle is now arguably South Florida's best overall golf retreat.

This feature contains details from our recent incognito vist and several insider secrets on how to save big money when visiting this top-notch resort. Not far north of Turnberry is Grande Oaks Country Club. This private club is better known as Bushwood Country Club, from the film Caddyshack. If you know where to stay, you can be a "member-for-a-day" and relive your favorite scenes on the course and in the clubhouse.
