Description

Don?t miss out on a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to enjoy a round of golf at one of the top golf courses in the world, Oakmont Country Club in, Oakmont, Pa.

Few golf venues have the championship tradition of Oakmont.  Introduced in 1903 by designer Henry Fownes, Oakmont Country Club has hosted more combined USGA and PGA championships than any other course in the U.S., including nine United States Opens, five U.S. Amateurs, three PGA Championships, and two U.S. Women's Opens.

Oakmont remains perhaps the most difficult course in North America, with numerous deep bunkers (personified by the Church Pews), hard and slick greens that often slope away from the player, and tight fairways requiring the utmost precision. Oakmont was the site of the greatest round of the 20th century: Johnny Miller's final round 63 at the 1973 U.S. Open. Golf Digest ranks Oakmont #5 in its most recent version of America's Top 100 courses.  Be sure to save time to wander through the clubhouse to see the endless supply of memorabilia collected throughout the years.

This package includes one round of golf for three players, including caddie fees and tips and lunch at Oakmont with a member.  Date and time will be mutually agreed upon between the member and auction winner.  Due to course renovations, it is suggested that the round be played in 2024. (Please note that winner must play on a Tuesday, Thursday, or Friday, as guest times are limited at Oakmont.)
