Gil Hanse's Black Course at Streamsong, Golf Digest's Best New Public Course of 2018, sits a mile south of the resort's Red and Blue courses, with its own clubhouse and personality. Reshaped from a decades-old phosphate strip mine that produced tall spoil mounds, Hanse provided strategic character by building a hidden punchbowl green at nine, dual putting surfaces at 13, incorporating a meandering creek on the par-5 fourth and a lagoon cove to guard the 18th green. Both the putting surfaces and the chipping areas surrounding them were grassed in MiniVerde, and today both are mowed at a single height, resulting in some of the biggest, most complex greens found on our national ranking along with Landmand, No. 155. One Streamsong insider calls the Black greens "polarizing;" we call them tremendous fun.
