Whiteface Club Golf Course - Lake Placid, NY

Whiteface Club Golf Course dates back to 1898, when the original nine was built. But a new emphasis on conditioning has given this historic Lake Placid track a new lease on golfing life.

Now golfers visiting upstate New York can appreciate one of the toughest closing stretches anywhere: Whiteface's four top handicap holes are in the finishing five. The 14th-18th run will define your round, and shape your memories of the course. No. 14 - a par 3 with the longest wooden bridge you're ever likely to see on a golf course - carries a reputation for perplexing generations of golfers.
