The layout features deep pot bunkers, undulating greens, and native grasses, including several links-style holes,” said Jim Boomer, CPGA Head Professional and General Manager. “It frequently hosts the Alberta Open Championship along with various other provincial championships. The Old Course challenges golfers with tight tee shots and often plays longer than its scorecard indicates.”
