Everything you need to know about Los Angeles Country Club and the third major of the year
What is the course like?
Los Angeles Country Club is located in Beverly Hills, a five-minute trip from Rodeo Drive, the haunt of celebrities and the rich and famous. Unsurprisingly, then, it is one of the most exclusive and wealthiest country clubs in the US, but it also has a rich history in the game,. Established in 1897, it hosted five Los Angeles Opens from 1926 to 1940. In 2017, it hosted the famous amateur team competition, the Walker Cup, played in by Scottie Scheffler and Collin Morikawa.
