History & Heritage
Tunica National was designed by 10-time PGA Tour winner Mark McCumber in the heart of the Tunica casino resort area, about 30 miles south of Memphis in the Mississippi Delta. The casino-area location means affordable stay-and-play packages for visiting golfers.
Consistently ranked among the best public courses in Mississippi. Champion bermuda greens, gently rolling zoysia fairways, and six tee markers per hole. PGA.com calls it a must-play near Memphis.
Signature Holes
Frequently cited as a favorite — requires a precise drive and strong approach. The finishing holes (17 and 18) with water hazards also demand strong play down the stretch.
What to Expect
Large receptive greens, wide forgiving fairways, but numerous water hazards as the primary defense. The open Delta terrain means wind can be a factor. A popular add-on for casino visitors.
Public at $35-70 in the Tunica casino area.
Playing Tips
Don\'t fight the water — play conservatively around the numerous hazards.
Wind on the open Delta terrain is a real factor. Smart iron play matters more than distance.
