Ralph Plummer’s Cypress Creek opened in 1959. Broad fairways and large greens establish its scale within a wooded Houston landscape, distinguishing it from the tighter Jackrabbit course added five years later.²

Plummer’s broad forest course

Cypress Creek belongs to a Club whose championship record includes the 1967 Ryder Cup and 1969 U.S. Open. Those early events gave the founders’ ambitions a national stage soon after the course opened.¹
