The Alotian Club

Seems to be a non-notable club; only assertion of notability is the relation with Tom Fazio. -WarthogDemon 03:29, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
 * I did a little bit more research - seems to have loads of brushes with notability; the designer is notable, the founder's father is notable, and several very notable players have given clinics there (Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods ).  It has also been included on a number of lists by notable publications, including Golf Digest  and golf.com .  So now the question is, is this all enough?  Sure the designer is notable, but his company has designed dozens of courses, and he doesn't pass his notability on to the course.  Sure, notable players have given clinics there, but thats a pretty common event, especially in the weeks preceding and following a major tournament.  And sure they have been included on lists, but they have all been lists of "up and coming" courses - rather then established leaders.  I would be inclined to !vote keep if this course had hosted a professional event, was in the list of top 100 private golf courses, or even topped the list of courses in Arkansas.  As it is, its just another celebrity designed golf course with no special characteristics.  Weak Delete - CosmicPenguin (Talk) 05:02, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete as notability is not inherited. Also, bad COI problem. Bearian 22:21, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
