Known as the Golf Capital of the world, Myrtle Beach was put on the map in the mid 20’s with the introduction of the Ocean Forest Country Club (now Pine Lakes Country Club). During the construction of the Hotel and Country Club, a 27- hole golf course was also built. The course was designed by St. Andrews (Scotland) native Robert White, who later became the first president of the PGA of America.
