The Bay Course and Pines Course of Seaview Resort are among the most sought-after golf courses on the East Coast, each steeped in history and maintained in tournament condition.

The 2012 ShopRite LPGA Classic will be played on the Bay Course.

Hugh Wilson laid out the original plan in 1914. Scottish Hall-of-Famer and legendary designer Donald Ross finished the course the following year. The course sustained a variety of changes over the decades. In 1997 Robert Cupp, Jr. began a comprehensive $1 million restoration to bring the course back to the vision of its original designers.

Situated on the coast of Reeds Bay, just a few miles northwest of Atlantic City, N.J., the Bay Course incorporates a variety of challenges in its classic mounding, deep pot and high-faced bunkers, tricky seashore winds and small greens with subtle undulations.

The old-school design and spectacular vistas of the bays and marshes have made this links-style course a favorite of lady professionals and spectators alike since hosting the first LPGA Classic in 1986. Part of the Bay Course was also used during the 1942 PGA Championship, when Sam Snead took his first major championship.
