Be the first to play the new lake merced

Scotsman Willie Locke built Lake Merced Golf Club in the heart of San Francisco in 1923, but the course began to make waves after a 1928 redesign by Alister MacKenzie. A growing city, and a shiny new highway, led to a 1964 redesign that stunted this onetime gem. 

For the past 18 months, Gil Hanse has been hard at work restoring Lake Merced to the course that the Good Doctor ordered. As expected, the golf world is highly anticipating this Hanse/MacKenzie collab. And the Broken Tee Society has been invited to be among the first to play it.
