Rob Collins laughed at the question, but he understood it.
“We knew when we were going through it, that this was going to be special,” says Collins, the architect and one of the partners in charge of the relatively young and universally praised nine-hole Sweetens Cove Golf Course in South Pittsburg, Tennessee. “But we did not have any idea it would get this kind of response.”
Collins had just done a golf podcast in Australia. The high praise for the nine-hole gem 25 minutes west of Chattanooga has been local, regional, national and, thanks to his interview Down Under, global.
The New York Times called Sweetens Cove “the course that could.”
