Course History and Architecture: Aronimink Overview2:49 – 5:17

So I think to start it off, Matt, what are you seeing, what are you liking about Aranamink? I know you're a big fan.

M

MattHost

2:58

Yeah.

M

MattHost

2:58

Well, I, I do like Aranamink.

M

MattHost

3:01

I think it, I think it looks really cool.

M

MattHost

3:04

It looks visually appealing.

M

MattHost

3:06

Um, I think we can all agree on that.

M

MattHost

3:08

It's, it's a course that is very, um...

M

MattHost

3:12

You would wanna play it, right? You'd wanna go there and take a picture.

M

MattHost

3:15

Um, so I, I, I love that about it.

M

MattHost

3:19

It, 1912, originally designed by Donald Ross.

M

MattHost

3:24

So he designed Pinehurst Number 2, um, bunch of different courses around the northeast.

D

3:32

Interlachen in Minnesota, Sardinia.

M

MattHost

3:35

There you go.

M

MattHost

3:35

Yeah.

M

MattHost

3:36

He, he said this was one of his best designs he ever created, his masterpiece, I think is what he called it.

M

MattHost

3:42

Um-

D

3:43

Mm.

M

MattHost

3:43

So, you know, I, I think the greens, in typical Donald Ross fashion, are pretty tricked up.

M

MattHost

3:49

Um, big undulations, really tough to putt.

M

MattHost

3:54

Um, and then it went through a redesign, so like most major championship venues, I feel like nowadays, redesigned by Gil Hanse sometime in the 2010s.

M

MattHost

4:03

Uh, it was in 2017 redesigned.

M

MattHost

4:06

Uh, some of the famous tournaments out there, uh, 1962 PGA Championship, which was won by Gary Player himself, uh, the ba-

D

4:17

Wow.

M

MattHost

4:17

The, the Black Knight.

M

MattHost

4:18

Um, it hosted the 2018 BMW Championship, which was won by Keegs, uh, Keegan Bradley, and the 2020 KPMG Women's PGA Championship.
