Suneagles Renovation Plan, by Fred BehringerSubmitted by bobtrebus on Wed, 2007-01-10 02:36.
Many golfers are aware that A. W. Tillinghast put an enduring stamp on Golf design in New Jersey with such courses as Baltusrol, Ridgewood, Shackamaxon and Somerset Hills. Less renowned but very much a Tillinghast design is The Suneagles Golf Course at Fort Monmouth. The course opened in 1926 as Suneagles on land owned by Max Phillips of The Phillips Van Heusen Clothing Company. The members bought it in the 1930s and renamed it Monmouth Country Club. Then the U.S. Army purchased the club in 1942 for $42,000.Play is limited to those connected withFort Monmouth, but the club records 40,000 to 50,000 rounds a year.

Restoring a Masterwork -- Baltusrol Upper, by Rick WolffeSubmitted by bobtrebus on Wed, 2007-01-10 02:32.
Shortly after the 1993 U.S. Open, Baltusrol began a planned program to restore and modernize its Upper golf course. For almost fifty years, since the Upper saw Tony Manero beat out Lighthorse Harry Cooper in the 1936 Open, this course had played second fiddle to the Lower. It was not until 1985, that the national spotlight would return to the Upper, when Kathy Baker outdueled Judy Clark to win the Women's U.S. Open. ( categories: Renovation and Restoration )
