Thinking About Living in Inwood Country Club?
Get connected with a local real-estate specialist who understands Inwood Country Club and the surrounding Long Island Gold Coast (North Shore) golf market.
Inwood Country Club was established in 1901 as a nine-hole course, expanded to 18 holes by 1906. In the early 1920s it hosted two of the era's defining championships: the 1921 PGA Championship, won by Walter Hagen, and the 1923 U.S. Open, where 21-year-old amateur Bobby Jones won the first of his 13 career major championships, defeating Bobby Cruickshank in an 18-hole playoff decided by a famous mid-iron approach from 190 yards on the final hole.
Today Inwood operates as a private golf, tennis, and beach club adjacent to Jamaica Bay, in the Nassau County hamlet of Inwood -- a genuinely distinct place from the similarly-named Inwood neighborhood of Manhattan, a mix-up flagged and avoided in this record.
