East Lake Golf Club

Historic East Lake Golf Club is the home course of legendary golfer Bobby Jones and is the oldest golf course in the city of Atlanta. The Clubhouse is a tribute to the exploits of its most celebrated member and includes a museum that houses many significant artifacts that celebrate Bobby Jones' incredible career.

 

Since its opening in 1913, East Lake has hosted many prestigious championships including the 1963 Ryder Cup, the 2001 U.S. Amateur, and the TOUR Championship. In 1994, Rees Jones restored Donald Ross’s original golf course layout and the clubhouse was brought back to its 1926 design and condition.  In 2008, an impressive addition to the Clubhouse was completed and several modifications were made to the golf course, including changing the putting surfaces from Bentgrass to Bermuda grass.

 

In 2005, East Lake Golf Club was named the permanent home of The TOUR Championship presented by Coca-Cola. It is the culminating event of the PGA TOUR Playoffs for the FedEx Cup, with only the top 30 players on the points list qualifying each year.
