Fog and Glory
The Olympic Club has been San Francisco’s grandest stage since 1860, and the Lake Course has spent the better part of a century proving it. Six U.S. Opens, four U.S. Amateurs and the seventh Broken Tee 2-Man have all been decided on these cypress-lined hills. Gil Hanse’s recent renovation expanded the greens and opened up the fairways, preparing the Lake Course to host the 2028 PGA Championship and 2033 Ryder Cup. This October, 108 Premium members get 27 holes on the Lake and all the famed Olympic Club burgerdogs they can eat.
