The most difficult course, Oakmont Country Club
The Legendary
The story of Oakmont Country Club is the story of Henry Clay Fownes, and his equally intelligent, resourceful and willful son, William Clark Fownes Jr. Before long, he was running it, and built it into a small empire. Patriarchal even among his brothers, he retained a controlling interest in all the family business ventures. Few venues in the world of golf have the championship tradition of Oakmont. Introduced in 1903 by designer Henry Fownes, Oakmont Country Club has hosted more combined USGA and PGA championships than any other course in the U.S., including nine United States Opens, five U.S. Amateurs, three PGA Championships, and two U.S. Women’s Opens. Oakmont remains perhaps the most difficult course in North America, with 175 deep bunkers (personified by the Church Pews), hard and slick greens that slope away from the player, and tight fairways requiring the utmost precision. Oakmont was the site of “the greatest round of the 20th century”: Johnny Miller’s final round 63 at the 1973 U.S. Open. Golf Digest ranks Oakmont #5 in its most recent version of America’s Top 100 courses.
Feature Casa de Campo Course
ALL BITE, NO BARK.
Ranked first in the Caribbean, this golf course in paradise should be on every golfer’s bucket list. Don’t settle for less when you have the opportunity to play on the best. Make no mistake, if you dare challenge the Dog it will bite back. But your efforts will be rewarded with 18 jaw-droppingly-beautiful holes—including seven right along the ocean—and the satisfaction of knowing you’ve played one of the best golf courses in the world.
A DYE FORE GOLF COURSE – TO DIE FOR.
Now some more numbers for you: holes 12 and 15 are two of the greatest and most-challenging par 3s in the world thanks to their length and stunning, cliffside beauty; 5 – the amount of holes on the Lagos course with lakes in play; and 1 – the number of strokes it takes to get started on the round of a lifetime. The signature challenges on Dye Fore golf course are matched by its subtle historic influences, ultimately creating a course that incorporates the past and present Dominican landscape. These defining features make Dye Fore golf course a one-of-a-kind masterpiece.
RISE TO THE CHALLENGE.
The Links golf course provides plenty of opportunity to admire the sea — as no less than five holes feature water hazards. Rolling hills and ocean views offer a unique and fun golf experience. This Caribbean golf course is rooted in the natural landscape it was built upon. Another Pete Dye creation, The Links was completely overhauled in 2012 to make it every bit as challenging as the other courses at Casa de Campo. Although challenging, a game on this La Romana golf course will parallel the beauty of the sport.
The Course
As golf grew hugely popular through the latter part of the 1800s, rich and powerful men took to building wildly heroic golf courses as tributes to themselves. But the grand and classic American golf courses from the turn of the 1800s-1900s were the product of wealthy men who wanted social playgrounds. There was, for example, W. K. Vanderbilt, of the Vanderbilt millions, who discovered golf on a visit to France. “This game will work in the U.S.,” he said, or words to that effect, and he all but shanghaied Willie Dunn, Scottish pro and course architect, and behold -- Shinnecock Hills Golf Club emerged at the Hamptons on Long Island. Then there was the young lady who showed up at her aunt’s estate in an exclusive Boston suburb, clubs in hand, asking the guys for a game.
