Situated in between some of the most famous landmarks in Los Angeles sits perhaps the city's most well-hidden gem.
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - JUNE 13: David Horsey of England plays a shot during a practice round prior to the 123rd U.S. Open Championship at The Los Angeles Country Club on June 13, 2023 in Los Angeles, California. Situated in between some of the most famous landmarks in Los Angeles sits perhaps the city’s most well-hidden gem.
The ultra-private setup is by design. For most of LACC’s history, which dates back to 1897 but didn’t move to its current location until 1911, its membership has valued privacy over popularity. “We got a lot of younger membership,” Shortz said. “And I think the younger folks, they have a little different view these days about what are the good things in life. How to be more associated with the community. Golf is less of a go out and play golf with my friends and have a beer and go home.
The gears of change were in motion. The North course underwent a major renovation that finished in 2010 and the clubhouse got a facelift a few years later. The logistics of bringing in thousands of fans have changed since those days, especially as the city has grown around it.
