The Genesis Invitational

Torrey Pines Golf Course (South Course)



    Eldorado Country Club

    Indian Wells, CA Private

    Overview

    Eldorado Country Club, located in the Coachella Valley, hosted the 1959 Ryder Cup, when Sam Snead captained the American team to a dominating victory over Great Britain. That was played on the original Lawrence Hughes designed track; in the early 2000s, Tom Fazio led an extensive redesign of the course, notably adding plenty of water to both toughen the course and add aesthetic appeal. Still, it remains a player-friendly layout, with forgiving fairways and large greens that often allow players to run shots up onto the surfaces.
