Oak Hill Country Club
East Course

The East Course - which hosts the major tournaments - has had several changes made over the years, first by Robert Trent Jones Sr. in the early 1960s and later (and more recently for the 1989 Open and 2003 <span class="caps">PGA</span>) by Tom Fazio and his design group. In 1941 the Times-Union, a local paper at the time posted a $5000 purse which attracted the greatest golfers in the world, including names such as Sam Snead, Walter Hagen, and Ben Hogan. This tournament, won by Snead, put Oak Hill on the national golf map. Several prestigious tournaments would be held at Oak Hill over the next 62 years, including six men&#8217;s major championships. In 2009, the East Course was ranked 11th in Golf Digest&#8217;s list of America&#8217;s 100 Greatest Golf Courses.
