Glen View Club
Richard Leslie, Glen View’s first professional, designed the initial course in consultation with Herbert Tweedie. William Flynn redesigned it in 1922; Jim Urbina began restoration work with the Club in 2013, recovering much of Flynn’s design character.1

From Leslie and Tweedie to Flynn
The course hosted the first Western Open in 1899. Member Louis James won the U.S. Amateur here in 1902, and Willie Anderson took the 1904 U.S. Open. Those championships place Glen View within the formative national competition circuit, before Flynn’s later architectural intervention.1
