In 1998, the golf world watched as Casey Martin was permitted to use a golf cart at the U.S. Open; David Duval finished as the PGA TOURs leading money winner and Se Ri Pak captured the U.S. Womens Open and the LPGA Championship, launching a wave of Korean golfers on the LPGA TOUR.

Locally in 1998, the Grand Strand golf scene gained its 101st course as True Blue Plantation opened its doors in the spring, and the course marks its 10th anniversary in 2008. Designed by the late Mike Strantz, True Blue is situated on the site of the historic True Blue Plantation, a famous 19th century indigo and rice plantation in Pawleys Island. Originally 6,842 yards in length, the complex measured 340 acres and was a flat site before Strantz reworked it into a hilly terrain with wide fairways. Strantz based much of True Blue on the characteristics of Pine Valley and Pinehurst No. 2, emphasizing a natural feel to the course, similar to the courses in the U.K., and utilizing native grasses and vegetation. During its first six months of operation, True Blue hosted more than 21,500 rounds of golf.

Immediately after opening, True Blue was recognized as the Fourth Best New Upscale Public Golf Courses of the Year by Golf Digest, and was honored as one of the Best of America New Course by The Golfer Magazine. By its second year of operation, True Blue was rated number two out of the Top 25 Golf Courses in the South by GOLFMagazine, the only Myrtle Beach area course to make the ranking.

Recently, True Blue has received numerous awards annually, including being named to America's Greatest 100 Public Golf Courses by Golf Digest, South Carolina Golf Course Ratings Panel's ranking of 50 Best Courses, GOLF Magazine's Top Ten Places To Play and Top 25 Courses in the South and one of the South Carolinas Best Public Access Golf Courses from Golfweek.

Were excited to mark our 10th year as one of the best courses on the Grand Strand, said Bob Seganti, True Blue head golf professional. In the last 10 years, weve recorded more than 400,000 rounds of golf and hosted countless amateur, junior, civic and charitable tournaments. We look forward to hitting the one million rounds mark in our next 10 years of operation.

In a destination famous for the quantity and quality of golf courses, one would expect Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, to have a radio talk show based on the game it loves so much. Thanks to an idea born 18 months ago from True Blue head golf professional Bob Seganti, that dream finally came to fruition in March of 2008, as the Grand Strand area finally gained its first golf radio talk show, "The Michelob Light Golf Guys."

Hosted by Seganti and WBTW sports director Matt Lincoln, The Michelob Light Golf Guys broadcast live every Saturday from 8:00  10:00 a.m. on ESPN Radio, The Team (93.7/93.9 FM and 1050 AM). During the show, The Michelob Light Golf Guys promote local golf news and events, national golf topics, trivia contests golf round giveaways and weekly instruction tips from Brad Redding, a GOLF Magazine Top 100 instructor from Grande Dunes Resort.

Recent guests have included Ken Griffey, Sr., former Air Force head football coach DeWitt Berry, PGA TOUR golfers Dustin Johnson, Chris DiMarco, Kevin Streelman, David Feherty and Charlie Rymer.

When asked to describe the show, co-host Seganti jokingly replied that the Michelob Light Golf Guys is a show for people who can laugh at themselves, laugh at their golf games and still love the game every bit as much as the plumb-bobbing, club-throwing, vanity-handicap-carrying, name-dropping, boring-everyone-to-tears with his/her description of every shot they hit that day, guy or gal we all know and despise who never buys a beer. The only reason we tolerate them is that we both love the same game.

Bob Seganti brings a special insight to The Golf Guys from having worked in the golf industry on the Grand Strand, said cohost Matt Lincoln. It seems like Bob knows everyone in the golf community, and everyone knows Bob. He also brings a special wit to the show that you dont usually find in stuffy golf professionals. Bob also has one undeniably important trait  a great face for radio.

South Carolina Golf Course Ratings Panel Honors Both Mike Strantz Designs in Biennial Rankings of the State's Best

April 23, 2008, Pawleys Island, S.C. - True Blue Plantation and Caledonia Golf & Fish Club were recently named to the "50 Best Courses in South Carolina" ranking recently announced by the South Carolina Golf Course Ratings Panel. Reviewed in the April issue of Palmetto Golfer, the Panel's biennial ranking recognizes the state's top resort, public access, daily-fee courses and private courses in even-numbered years. Both Strantz courses were named to the 2007 "50 Best Courses in South Carolina" ranking, and were also selected to the 2007 "Best Courses That You Can Play" list that honors resort, public access, and daily-fee course in odd years.

"We are thrilled to be ranked as two of the top 50 golf courses in the state," said John Springs, general manager for Caledonia and True Blue. "I credit our success to our superior staff and the on-going course development projects that keep both courses in pristine condition."

The South Carolina Golf Course Ratings Panel consists of 125 Palmetto State residents who represent all facets of the game and all levels of playing abilities. Rankings are conducted by a closed vote with results tabulated once voting has closed. The objective of the South Carolina Golf Course Ratings Panel is to promote excellence in South Carolina golf course design and operations through competitive rankings, education and public advocacy.

In determining course ratings, panelists consider the following criteria: routing - how the course flows from hole to hole in harmony with existing topography; variety - degree to which the course demands a full range of shot requirements; strategy - how design features test course management; equity - the course's capacity to reward good shots and penalize poor ones; memorability - the distinctiveness of the golf course and its individual holes; aesthetics - the degree to which scenery and surrounds lend to the enjoyment and experience - incorporates all elements of the course: practice areas and clubhouse.
