A round at Founders Club delivers plenty of memorable moments—but it’s the final five holes that truly steal the show.

No. 14 is arguably the course’s toughest test. A 395-yard dogleg right from the white tees, it demands precision off the tee and an accurate mid-to-long iron into an elevated green.

But the pressure eases just in time, with Nos. 15 and 16—the two easiest holes on the back nine. No. 16, a scenic 135-yard par 3, offers a welcome breather before the challenge ramps back up.

No. 17 stretches to a demanding 430 yards, the longest par 4 on the course, requiring two solid strikes just to reach the green in regulation.

The finale, No. 18, is a 338-yard risk-reward par 4. Lay back off the tee and you’ll face a delicate approach over water—a shot that can make or break your round.

This closing stretch is equal parts beauty and challenge—and it perfectly encapsulates what makes a day at Founders Club unforgettable.
