Host to the US Women’s Amateur Public Links Championship in 1984, Meadowbrook Golf Course is a 1970s David Gill design that brings the waters of Rapid Creek into play at a handful of holes. Holes are routed in two returning nines, with fairways weaving through stands of cottonwood, spruce and pine trees in a beautiful parkland environment.
The course is owned and operated by the Parks and Recreation Department of Rapid City, extending to 6,935 yards from the back markers and playing to a par of 72. It first opened for play in 1977, designed by David Gill, a Midwest member of the ASGCA who started his career with Robert Bruce Harris in Chicago before branching out on his own.
Incidentally, Heather Farr, the winner of the 1984 USGA tournament at Meadowbrook (who had also won the national Girls’ Junior championship at Greeley Country Club in Colorado two years earlier) turned professional in 1985 but was unfortunately diagnosed with breast cancer four years later, succumbing to this terrible disease at the very young age of 28 in 1993.
