Ridgewood Country Club
« on: August 24, 2018, 10:39:44 PM »
I enjoyed watching the Northern Trust PGA tournament from Ridgewood Country Club on CBS today.  It looked to be a very good renovation of a good Tillinghast course.  I was glad to hear Dottie Pepper talk about the redo of this course and others like it--mentioning the adding of width to the fairways and removal of trees, restoring of greens to original size, etc.  She talked about the use of newly-found maps and photos at other old courses that have aided in the restoration of classic courses.
I searched for more information on this course which I haven't played, and found some mentions of it on past GCA posts, but nothing in any depth.  Gil Hanse redo, I understand.  #56 on Golfweek Top 100 Classic Courses.  What else is worth mentioning and discussing?

Links to photos and a video flyover of the course are there.
