ABOUT PLAINFIELD COUNTRY CLUB:
Established in 1890, Plainfield Country Club has enjoyed a revered reputation as one of the oldest clubs in America. Originally designed by Donald Ross in 1916, the club acquired land to expand its footprint in the 1930s to construct three new holes. Over the past 10 years, Plainfield has undergone an extensive restoration and renovation program under the direction of architect Gil Hanse, involving the removal of more than 1,200 trees, the rediscovery of lost bunkers covered in prior years, expansion of several greens and the lengthening of tees.
