Shinnecock Hills is an old club with old traditions, and Scottish professional Willie Dunn can take credit for what was probably the inaugural authentic US golf course design, which dates back to 1891. The 12 holes are diverse and demanding, laid out with the prevailing wind in mind, and the views wonderful, making it a popular course for championship games.
