The club hosted the PGA Championship in 1993 as well as many other years, and the 1920, 1931, 1957, and 1979 U.S. Opens were held here. "Golf Digest" rated this course 35th best out of "America's 100 Greatest Courses" for 1995-96, and 33rd best for 1997-98. It was also rated as the 3rd "Best in State" course for 1995-96, and the 4th best in 1997-98. In addition, "GOLF Magazine" awarded it 31st among the "Top 100 Courses in the U.S." for 1995, 32nd in 1997 and 39th in 1999. "GOLFWEEK" ranked it 28th among "America's 100 Best Classical Courses" for 1997, 26th for 1998 and 44th for 1999. Byron Nelson, who holds the record of eleven consecutive PGA Tournament wins, served as the golf professional at this club.

Mid western Greenbrier, May 31, 2005 |
| reviewer: Bud Herman
from Yardley Pa |
| I had the opportunity to play this course for the first time this past week and I came away completely thrilled with the course and totally impressed with the excellent staff and facilities. It is a course like the white course at the Greenbrier. You get the feeling that Byron Nelson or Sam Snead are going to come out and give you a lesson at anytime. I can only say that it is an outstanding course with a great history and should be on everyone's list of fine courses to play. |

Best Ross course in America, Aug 04, 2004 |
| reviewer: Ted White
from FT Lauderdale |
| This is by far and away the best Donald Ross course ever. It has had some changes to add length and some modifications to the greens but it is still a typical ross course. Narrow fairways and small super fast greens. The only thing holding this course back from being a top 10 in the world is an ocean side view! Thanks for the course Mr. Ross! |

| This is the best course that I have ever played, the course is in excellent condition. The superintendent Tom Walker has done a great job. I recommend this course if you are looking to play the best. |
