Designed by Charles Blair Macdonald and Seth Raynor and opened in 1926. The par-70 collegiate course is renowned for massive scale, deep bunkers, dramatic contours and the enormous Biarritz green.

Macdonald and Raynor's Yale course, with the Biarritz ninth over a lake and greens the size of tennis courts. Hanse's restoration is under way; it was worth it before.
