  • Dogwood History Year by Year 1.9.20
    Dogwood History Year by Year 1941 - Tommy Barnes Tommy Barnes, with a 72-hole score of 4 over par, 292, won the first Dogwood Tournament over the Druid Hills links on April 25, 26, and 27, 1941. Sportswriter Al Sharp described Barnes and his remarkable showing: “Needing a 2-under-par 34 on the back nine to beat Gene Gaillard, the happy-go-lucky man in the lucky green hat shot exactly that for victory. One over par through the fourteenth hole and knowing what he had to do, Barnes rolled two birdies in a row into the fifteenth and sixteenth cups for a stroke lead and held it to the finish. He got down a six-footer at the fifteenth after a beautiful iron to the par three hole, and then hit the par five sixteenth in two shots to land another birdie. “Barnes had moved into third place at the three-quarters mark with a 71 for 221, five strokes back of Dr. Julius Hughes, the medalist, and one behind Bill “Dynamite” Goodloe. The winner carded a 37-34-71 on the final round. There had been some innovations for the tournament. In particular, prior to 1941 the accepted amateur tournament was medal qualifying and match play elimination. It was an accepted fact that the lack of experience in medal play was responsible for many fine amateur golfers failing to qualify in various tournaments. A medal competition better prepared amateurs for the following qualifying rounds in regularly scheduled state and local tournaments. Medal competition also was regarded as a more valid method of establishing the best golfer during the event.

EAST LAKE GOLF CLUB HISTORY East Lake Golf Club is a private golf club located approximately five miles east of downtown Atlanta, Georgia. Established in 1904, East Lake is the oldest golf course in the city of Atlanta. It was the home course of golfer Bobby Jones and much of its clubhouse serves as a tribute to his accomplishments. During the mid to late 1800s, the United States was experiencing an unprecedented growth in the interest of sports, especially amateur sports. At the time, Atlanta did offer many social clubs, but there was no club organized for the purpose of promoting athletics. Led by Burton Smith, a group of 65 men formed the Atlanta Athletic Club (AAC) in 1898. The club initially had no golf course, but four years after it was founded, it had more than 700 members.

  • East Lake: Who We
    Community Review East Lake Where the Sun Rises First in Atlanta East Lake Neighbors Community Association wwwEastLake.org1 A Letter from the ELNCA President Dear Atlanta Public Schools Board of Education, Welcome to East Lake, where the sun shines first in Atlanta. As you make the difficult decisions of school redistricting, we want you to have a full picture of our community. You are aware of our concerns regarding keeping our community together, that we must have a local middle school, Coan, and that we need to remain in the Grady cluster. We would like to provide you with information about East Lake and what we are about. East Lake is a community that is rich in history, from the Civil War, to the Civil Rights movement to today. East Lake began with the historic home of Cornel Robert A. Alston, called Meadow View. The East Lake Golf Club was the original home of the Atlanta Athletic Club created by Asa Candler. Civil Rights Leader Hosea Williams called East Lake home. East Lake has played a significant role in shaping Atlanta. While the in 1970s and 1980s the neighborhood went through a very difficult period, East Lake has become a prime example of how a community can come together to revive from adversity and become vibrant and relevant again. Today East Lake consists of 1,300 homes and over 4,000 residents making a community that cares about the future. Through dedication from residents and partnerships with leaders in the business community we have a strong story to tell. Through commitment from residents of East Lake there are multiple examples of how we are an organized, inclusive and effective community.

  • In Georgia by John Companiotte
    THE DONALD ROSS LEGACY IN GEORGIA BY JOHN COMPANIOTTE IN recent years golf course architect Donald Ross’s contributions to the game have been reinvigorated by the playing of the U.S. Open at Pinehurst No. 2 course. That course was Ross’s work- shop for nearly 50 years and it still retains some of the basic features associated with his design work. Open front greens allowing a run-up approach shot, a lay- out following the natural contours of the land, shallow bunkers and greens whose surfaces sit perched above their sur- rounds are some of the typical attributes of a Ross design, although not present at every course where he worked. According to Jack Nicklaus, “His stamp as an archi- tect was naturalness.” MAY/JUNE 33 orn in 1871, Ross (1925); Forest Hills Golf Club (1926), which Seth Raynor, Hugh Moore and Bob Cupp, enjoyed success hosted the Southeastern Open in 1930 won with Brian Silva doing the most extensive as a competitor in by Jones in his Grand Slam year; Highland renovation in 2001, according to head pro- golf, winning three Country Club (9 holes, 1922); Roosevelt fessional Tommy Brannen.

Many of these honorees had a personal connection to Mr. Jones or the game of golf, and we are proud to showcase them throughout the lobby. In this panel, we recognize those donors who made contributions of $25,000+ to the project, as well as the partners who helped us reimagine, design, and build the new Bobby Jones Golf Course.
