Daniel Wexler commented in his book The American Private Golf Club Guide: “Weston actually requires the golfer to play across public roads on three separate occasions – an oddity in these overly litigious times.

Though somewhat on the short side, there is a good bit of interest here, highlighted by the 364-yard 7th, an attractive drive-and-pitch played to a green jutting out into a pond. Some hillier terrain affects the 294-yard 8th and 425-yard 9th, while the 406-yard 11th and 346- yard 12th bring water more heavily into play.

For better players, Weston offers a set of gold tees which shorten the 470-yard 6th and 492-yard 18th into dangerous two-shotters, reducing par to 70. Somewhat overshadowed, but worth a look if one is in the neighbourhood.”

It was announced in early 2022 that Andy Staples was developing a master plan for the club which was based largely on detailed Wille Park sketches sourced by the club, 1947 aerial images, and a 1926 master plan drawn up by a Toronto engineering company.

World Top 100 Golf Courses

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.
