Thornhill Golf Club

The Thornhill Club's golf course was designed by Stanley Thompson and established in 1922. It features an eighteen-hole championship golf course and a nine-hole executive golf course, with Thompson's classic design characteristics such as strategic bunkering, illusions of distance, and varied hole lengths and fairways.

Notable course features include subtly breaking greens, intricate mounding, and elevated tees, designed to utilize and conform to the natural environment. The clubhouse is centrally located, offering views of the landscaped gardens and walkways that complement the course.

Byron Nelson, a prominent figure in golf history, achieved an 11th consecutive PGA Tour victory at The Thornhill Club in 1945, a record that has not been surpassed as of the date of this summary. The course's 11th hole, known as "Nelson's Folly," received its name following Nelson's challenging play during the final round of this tournament.

Thornhill Club's role in golf history is further highlighted by its hosting of the PGA Canadian Open, and architect Stanley Thompson's recognition as one of the premier golf course designers. Thompson's courses, including Thornhill's, are held in high regard and serve as benchmarks for golf course design throughout Canada.
