Links LS Championship Course: Oakland Hills Country Club (PC)

Links LS Championship Course: Oakland Hills Country Club (PC) Access Software has waited a long time to produce Oakland Hills Country Club, one of the world’s mailine golf courses.

Since its very beginning in the early 1920s, Oakland Hills has made its mark in the annals of golf history.

The 1924, 1937, 1951, 1961, 1985 and 1996 US Opens, along with the 1972 and 1979 PGA Championships and the 1981 and 1991 US Senior Opens were all held at this proud venue.

It was at the memorable 1951 US Open - when the South Course was revamped and made almost unbearable by Robert Trent Jones - that it received its nickname, “The Monster.”

Only two players that year had rounds under par. Ben Hogan’s 287 total won the Open and caused him to exclaim his joy at having “brought this course, this MONSTER, to its knees.”

Now, in this newest addition to the Links Championship Course lineup, you too can play The Monster and experience for yourself why the 18th at Oakland Hills is considered by many to be “the toughest finishing hole in golf.”
