An old Walter Travis layout from 1916, the course at Columbia Country Club hosted the US Open five years after it first opened for play. In more modern times, the club held the 2003 US Junior Amateur Championships when Brian Harman won the tournament – an event Tiger Woods won three years in a row in the early 1990s.
The course lies on a hilly, rather restricted site which offers little room for expansion so, as a consequence, the layout has remained much the same in length (a modest 6,545 yards) for almost a century. Indeed, apart from some bunker modifications, nothing much has changed here on any of the holes.
On the front nine, the 426-yard 2nd and 357-yard 3rd are excellent par fours which see the fairways of both holes cross the same creek between tee and green whilst the short par four 17th – where the tee shot almost plays over the 16th green – is the pick of the holes on the closing stretch back to the clubhouse.

Travis loved the New York City social and sporting scene. Apart from hunting and fishing trips he was also partial to a Ricoro Corona cigar, a dram or two of Old Crow whiskey, and evenings playing poker.
