Overview
Though it’s not a long course, tipping out around 6,500 yards, Palos Verdes incorporates many aspects of George Thomas’ design philosophy, most notably having the course play with the land. At Palos Verdes, Thomas (along with Billy Bell) used barrancas, creeks and the hillsides to create natural hazards that shape the ideal line of play. Interestingly, on the front nine, no two consecutive holes have the same par. The course hosted the 2023 DIO Implant Open on the LPGA Tour.

“Excellent George Thomas design on a very severe piece of property. Plays much longer with well bunkered small and fast greens coupled with mostly uneven lies. First four holes are really good and it stays very solid throughout."

“A wonderful Billy Bell golf course with George Thomas influence. Only 6400 yards from tips, this course plays longer and tougher with it's up hill shots to tiny quick, firm greens...I highly recommend a visit if your in the LA Area."
