Golf’s ancient beginnings were founded on the Scottish, English and Irish seasides. These lands were treeless, windswept and full of high grassy dunes, tufted mounds and tangled roughs, and they were truly the strips of earth that linked the land to the sea. As the popularity of golf has grown over the years, many of these great links courses have withstood the test of time and still today are chosen as the sites for The Open Championship, the oldest major championship in golf. Harborside International’s two exceptional courses, Port & Starboard, were designed by renowned architect Dick Nugent to bring this great tradition of links golf to Chicago. Two time Masters Champion Ben Crenshaw, during the Champions Tour stop here in 2002, compared Harborside to Muirfield in Scotland, the site of 15 Open Championships won by the likes of Els, Faldo, Watson, Nicklaus, Player, Hagen and Vardon.
