Golf history was made on "The Senator" course here on Sunday, September 18, 2011 when Lexi Thompson because the youngest-ever winner (age 16) of an LPGA event. She took the Navistar LPGA Classic with a 5-shot margin of victory -- even though she still had not yet gained full LPGA membership.

Part of the RTJ Golf Trail, Capitol Hill GC offers three courses: The Judge, the Legislator, and the aforementioned Senator, which hosts the LPGA's annual Navistar Classic. The course name and titles reference nearby Montgomery, Alabama's capital city.

The Senator course itself echoes a traditional Scottish-style layout with over 150 bunkers and mounds ranging in height from 20 to 40 feet.

"The Legislator" is a more traditional parkland course, playing in and out of pine trees along a bluff. The view riding down the "Sky Bridge" for six holes laid out in a native cypress swamp is said to be impressive.

"The Judge" plays alongside 200 acres of Alabama River backwater. The first tee sits 200 feet above the fairway overlooking the Alabama River and the skyline of Montgomery. 14 holes adjoin the water, including a bulkhead island green. The club advertises "The Judge" as one of the most scenic courses in the South.

Really enjoyed all 3 courses. Didn't play well at all as the greens were amazingly quick w/ tough pin positions. The Legislator was my favorite however, traditional layout w/ some tall trees and shadows. Grand size...Almost "augusta-like" though I have never been there. Want to go back.

One of the best golf courses I hve ever played. Loved the elevation changes. The course was in terrific shape. Played November 6 and had the place to ourselves.

What a great golf course! Want to get destroyed? Play this course from the tips. I think I hit driver to 3 of the 4 par 3's, and it seems like all of them were either island greens or 200+ yard carry over the water. Lots of fun though.
