ABOUT WESTCHESTER COUNTRY CLUB Three-time U.S. Amateur champion Walter J. Travis laid out the two 18-hole golf courses at Westchester Country Club, just 30 miles outside New York City, that opened in 1922. The courses were built by the Philadelphia-based architectural firm of Toomey and Flynn who built the modern course at Shinnecock Hills toward the end of the same decade. The club joined the USGA on Jan. 13, 1922, several months before the courses opened for play that summer. The West Course has hosted many memorable golf events over its history. Beginning with the 1923 U.S. Women’s Amateur, the course went on to host 44 PGA Tour events. The Thunderbird Classic came to Westchester in 1963, with Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus winning two of the first three years.

Appropriately enough, the first Cham- pionship to be held there was the Women's Amateur of 1906, won by Miss Harriot Curtis, co-donor with her sister Margaret of the Curtis Cup. In 1919 Walter Hagen won his second USGA Open Championship there before embarking on his British conquests in the '20s. Brae Burn was the scene of another Anglo-American battle when Robert T. Jones, Jr., successfully staved off the challenge of the reigning British Ama- teur Champion, T. Phillip Perkins, in the final of the 1928 Amateur Championship by the overwhelming margin of 10 and 9. And now for the Curtis Cup. In the past the United States has won six Curtis Cup Matches to Britain's two, and the 1936 series at Gleneagles, Scotland, re- sulted in a tie at 4% points each.
