Welcome to Our 18 Hole Donald Ross Course

After more than 100 years of golf at Forsyth Country Club, a strong case could be made that the golf course has never been better. Starting as a 9-hole layout with sand greens soon after the Club was founded in 1913, the course was upgraded to a “real” 9-hole course by A.W. Tillinghast on the property that today contains the back 9. In 1920, Donald Ross was hired to give FCC a true championship 18-hole course.

Our Head Professional: Chase Adams

Chase is originally from High Point, North Carolina. He started his professional career with us at Forsyth in January 2011 through August 2015. He was hired as First Assistant Golf Professional at Bulls Bay in August 2015, remaining there until July 2017 when he accepted an assistant’s position at Charlotte Country Club.

Chase returned to Forsyth as First Assistant Golf Professional in September 2018. Chase enjoys teaching the game to all levels of players, junior golf, and playing competitively. He is an avid hunter in his spare time. Chase served as Tournament Chairman of the Carolinas PGA Assistants Association in 2017 and was re-elected to a new two-year term in the fall. Chase is married to his wife, Misty, who he wed in October 2016.
