A par 70 playing just under 7,000 yards from the back tees, the opening nine winds around the perimeter of the South Course, while the closing nine moves west and climbs in elevation. The Fazio Course is the current home of the Ohio Senior Open.   The Fazio Course features wide open undulating fairways and large, subtly breaking greens. Few trees restrict tee shots, though ample bunkers frame sightlines, demanding accuracy and distance control to stay out of the sand. No matter your skill level, each round on Fazio is sure to delight, from the scenic, elevated vistas to each strategically designed hole.   Strackaline Thanks to a partnership with the Northern Ohio Golf Association, StrackaLine books can be purchased for a reduced price.
