• USGA dated host record and researched Club identity
  • Oakland Hills Country Club - South

    Dated USGA host wording Oakland Hills C.C. (South Course), Birmingham, Mich. is explicitly reconciled to Oakland Hills Cc in Bloomfield Hills, MI. The same named host's 1996 USGA entry corroborates the canonical locality. The dated South Course qualifier resolves to the existing Oakland Hills Cc - South Course owned by this Club.
