Canterbury Golf Club: located in Cleveland's outer suburbs, this classic golf course represents one of the best designs crafted by acclaimed course architect Herbert Strong. Englishman Strong was a founding member of the PGA of America, and its first Secretary-Treasurer.
Canterbury is one of only two clubs to have hosted all five of the men's major championships that rotate between different sites (namely, the US Open, PGA Championship, US Amateur, Snr US Open and Snr PGA Championship). Canterbury is a private club, exclusively for the use of members and their invited guests.
Private club; visitors/guests may only play if hosted by a member.
Canterbury Golf Club has staged many top level events over the years. The US Open (1940, 1946) and US Amateur Championship (1964, 1979) have both been played here on two occasions. The Senior Players Championship enjoyed a run here from 1983 thru' 1986 ... Arnold Palmer picking up top honours in 1984 and successfully defending in 1985.
