Metropolitan Amateur Golf Association: St. Louis Country Club history
- St. Louis Country Club
  The regional golf association explicitly dates the Macdonald-Raynor 18-hole course opening to 1914 and distinguishes the earlier Clayton nine-hole site. Its event inventory places the 1947 Open, 1921/1960 Amateurs, 1925/1972 Women's Amateurs and 2014 Curtis Cup at this continuing course. Preserve par and current hole data; the 1892 Club founding is not the course opening. This completed edition is after the established modern course era. Bind the named course without asserting unchanged historical tee positions or hole routing. Round use remains unspecified.
