Golf on The Moon - At the Magnificent Whistling Straits
The rolling dunes at Whistling Straits catch the last light of day, their pale texture and shadowed ridges giving the scene a moonlike beauty. A landscape both natural and crafted, golf’s lunar masterpiece on the edge of Lake Michigan. It’s golf’s most rugged terrain — raw, remote, and breathtaking. Where the Earth feels distant and the game feels celestial.
