Los Angeles Country Club: located next to star-studded Beverly Hills in the "City of Angels", LACC is home to the legendary and very challenging North course, as well as the shorter and less renowned South course. The illustrious Los Angeles North is perennially included in listings of America's 100 greatest courses.
The North course is flanked to the north by winding Sunset Boulevard, and Wilshire Boulevard to the south. Laid out between these two illustrious addresses is the excellently crafted North Course. The club's shorter South Course lies to the south of Wilshire Blvd.
At times feeling quite linksy, at others more parkland in character, this revered layout provides a haven of golfing tranquility. With its plentiful, rustic-edged bunkering and often rolling fairways your game will be thoroughly probed and tested. Beyond the course the eclectic scene embraces wooded hills studded with multi-million dollar homes, as well as the high-rise of Century City to the south (which was built in the former backlot of the 20th Century Fox film studios).
Limited access: this is a private course generally playable only by members and their invited guests.
Private club - guests may only play if hosted by a member.
The current location of Los Angeles Country Club was identified by club founders Joseph "Joe" Sartori (a prominent Los Angeles banker) and Ed Tufts. Together with Norman Macbeth and Charles Orr they laid out the original golf course. After an expansion to 36 holes, the courses were later redesigned by Englishman Herbert Fowler in 1921, and later in 1927 by George C. Thomas Jr and William Park "Billy" Bell. Other nearby courses, at Bel-Air and Riviera Country Clubs, were also designed by Thomas.
LACC has hosted many top-level tournaments, including several Los Angeles Opens (1926, '34, '35, '36 & '40) and the 1930 US Women's Amateur. The 2017 Walker Cup was also staged at LACC, as was the 2023 U.S. Open Championship ... the first major championship held at the club (see our Tournaments section >by Venue >Los Angeles CC).
