  • The most recent installment of our Fried Egg Guides series focuses on this year's US Open venue, The Country Club in Brookline, Massachusetts. One of the five founding clubs of the USGA, The Country Club has a significant place in American golf but hasn't hosted an Open since Curtis Strange's playoff victory in 1988. We sit down with golf architect Gil Hanse to discuss his team's long-term work at the club which has helped expose the rugged New England terrain and re-introduce a devilish short Par-3 by adjusting the ever-evolving championship routing.
    Written and narrated by Garrett Morrison

    If you think about it, the 1913 US Open was a real life Caddyshack moment

    Really cool video love hearing this type of detail about the course and its history. Makes me even more excited to see it at this year's U.S. Open.

    I was very lucky to have. played the Country Club a bunch in the 80s and early 90s, a good friend of mine dad was the superintendent and we were allowed to play it after members and later in the afternoon. I grew up next to Dedham Country and Polo club on a farm and caddied and work there in the early 70s for a while. those two courses are fantastic and fun to play

    Beautiful work. It's such a bummer that lifelong Bostonians and golf fans will never be able to play here.

    This is the type of course when you have 10 guys shoot -5 on day one and a couple guys get to -7 or -8. This is not a championship course. It is a wonderful course, very pristine, but too short and flat for a challenging US Open. This will be a shootout for 4 days. JT played a practice round on Tuesday this week and shot 30 on the front and 32 on the back....and hit just 2 drivers during the round. Gary Woodland shot a similar number in his practice round

      When did he play a practice round this past week. The practice rounds start on 6/13 I thought.
