The par-71, 7,020-yard layout stretches across 250 wooded acres, blending the traditional, walkable architecture of early 20th-century Irish and American courses with strategic bunkering, native fescue and bentgrass fairways. The course hosted the 2019 U.S. Senior Open, along with the 2005 and 2010 NCAA Men’s Regionals and the 2010 U.S. Women’s Amateur Public Links Championship.<\/p>\n
