Located deep in Mississippi’s De Soto National Forest, Fallen Oak comes from the same Las Vegas, MGM Mirage stable as Shadow Creek. Some say that Fallen Oak, due to its natural setting, is the better of the two layouts. Both are products of the same architect, Tom Fazio.
During construction, dozens of large specimen trees were relocated, over a hundred acres of turf was laid and more than half a million cubic yards of earth was moved to accentuate the dramatic elevation changes on the property.
From the tips, Fallen Oak plays to almost 7,500 yards, thanks mainly to a collection of long, strong par fives – the 15th is over 600 yards – that begins at the left doglegged opening hole, where water hampers progress between tee and green.
The course held the inaugural Mississippi Gulf Resort Classic on the Champions Tour in 2010, won by David Eger with a 54-hole total of 205 (11 under par), one stroke ahead of Tommy Armour III.
