St Joseph Country Club moved to its current location in 1912 so the course is over a century old now. It’s been renovated in recent years so it now features tree-lined fairways carpeted with Zoysia grass and greens sown with bent.
St Joseph Country Club was formed in 1898 and moved to its current location in 1912 so the course is over a century old now. We're not sure who originally designed the course, but the club claims that A.W. Tillinghast refashioned the layout in 1936. However, St Joseph is not specified as a Tillinghast course in his list of original designs, reconstructions, expansions and additions.
The Architects of Golf credits Bob Dunning and Don Sechrest as two architects who separately revised the original course. In more recent years, Bill Love renovated the layout and most recently, in 2008, CE Golf Design performed a bunker renovation.
Measuring 6,582 yards and unusually configured with six par threes, five par fives and seven par fours, St Joseph features tree-lined fairways carpeted with Zoysia grass and greens sown with bent.
The latest ranking of the Top 100 Golf Courses in the World serves as the ultimate global golf bucket list. Most members of our World Top 100 Panel are seasoned golfers, each playing 20-30 of these courses annually while travelling extensively over decades to form their opinions on others. We recognise that opinions vary—even among our panel members. Rankings are subjective, and there are undoubtedly 50 or more courses in the UK and USA alone that could easily fit onto this list.
