Reel Life in The Golf Capital of the World®: The Run-Up to “The Gambler”

It gets plenty of attention, and for good reason. “The Gambler,” the adventurous risk/reward, par-5 6th hole at King’s North at Myrtle Beach National is one of the Grand Strand’s most talked-about holes.

So take this video as a reminder that, as memorable as your playing experience is on No. 6, the three-hole run-up to it deserves every bit of your full attention as well. A par 4-3-4 sequence on Holes 3 through 5 offers its own blend of compelling scenery and unique challenge to whet your appetite for all “The Gambler” has to offer.
