Here's a closeup look at all 18 holes of the North Course at Los Angeles Country Club, the site of the 2023 U.S. Open, which begins Thursday.
In a quest to increase the visibility of golf, locals are trying to open the sport to more by refurbishing Maggie Hathaway Golf Course in South L.A.This is the only true blind tee shot on the course. The player can’t see the landing area from the tee. You’re aiming to drive the ball between the trees into one of the narrower fairways on the course. Accuracy is essential here.
For players on the right side, there’s a blind approach in, aiming at trees and trying to guess where the hole location is.This hole backs up into what used to be the Playboy Mansion, an estate originally built by an LACC member.This is the beginning of the turn for home. One of the more interesting par fives. Players are hitting into Century City in the background, which was built on the old 20th Century Fox backlot.
There’s a bump in the middle of the green that effectively divides the green into two quadrants. Being on the same side of that bump as the day’s hole location is essential.The start of the final three par fours, the first time on the course there are three par fours in a row. One of the most beautiful and difficult par fours you’ll play. From the back tees there’s not a huge landing area. You’ve got barranca to the right and trees to the left.Hit the fairway and you’ve got a mid-to-long iron in with a smaller green that angles away from you with a remarkable bunker that guards all of the front hole locations. Playing down the right side opens a better angle to some of those hole locations.
