Nice Course just outside of Oak Ridge, TN.

Nice Course just outside of Oak Ridge, TN. Good challenging course. The cart girl made it around to use quite a few times and we needed it as it was hot outside. We stayed for a round afterwords and grabbed some food.

Elevation changes

Course was in excellent shape outside of the tee boxes (which would be generous to say they were rough shape). Lots of small/mid elevation changes and a fun route.

Course

Course plays great. They unnecessarily group you with people when there is no need to do so. Greens are rough.

Rough course

$48.00 to play this course! No way way! You should be giving discounts especially with the greens in the poor conditions they were in! Should have just played plinko

Centennial

Tee Boxes are absolutely trashed. Fairways are in decent shape. Greens are in below average shape. Layout is good. 3/5

Don’t waste your money

Tee boxes with no grass. No drainage and retains water if it has rained. Very tight and even good shots get punished by the grade. Only positive was the condition of the greens.

Pin placement crucial

This course can be extremely challenging depending on pin placement. If you put approach in wrong position, a 3 putt can often occur.

Played in tournament. Had a good time.

I like the layout of this course. It offers varying challenges. The most interesting thing I can comment on is that depending on pin placement it makes a huge difference. So, make sure you aim to put the approach shot in the best position even if it is a longer putt. You will 3 putt if you get in the wrong places.

Patchy tee boxes and scuffed greens

Centennial used to be a local favorite. It is late fall/winter conditions, but it's a shame that 15/18 tee boxes are complete mud or patchy, makes it difficult to find a good spot to tee up. Also, the width of the tee boxes is extremely small, maybe 10ft wide, it looks funny and more importantly doesn't give much option to tee up left for a draw or right side for a cut if the hole calls for it. Greens have scuff (shoe?) marks but are rolling true.

That being said, the course layout is great and the food is amazing. Perhaps it's just a transitional period of the season, but would like to see the track up to par as the other Knoxville public courses are right now.

Could be better

Its fall and the course is wet and not in good condition, the tee boxes desperately need attention! And people are not repairing their pitch marks!!

Nice course

Nice course, pretty well maintained. A little pricey for a municipal/city course. Overall good course and layout with some challenging narrow holes.
