WGA identifies August 22-24 Midlothian Country Club, Blue Island, Ill. 6,380 yards, bogey 86 as the 1901 host. Club-level venue only; historical physical-course identity remains unasserted. The institution and city are verified, but independent historical physical-course continuity is not established in this batch. Keep club-only; do not bind a current course by name alone.
