BREC's Webb Memorial Golf Course

LA, United States

Webb Memorial Golf Course is an 18-hole championship layout measuring 6,656 yards, centrally located at BREC's Webb Park in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The course features large oak trees lining the fairways throughout, creating a classic aesthetic near downtown. Originally opened in 1925 as Westdale Country Club, it became LSU's first golf course in 1936 before being acquired by BREC in 1957. The course presents moderate to challenging conditions with strategic bunkering, water hazards including Ward's Creek, and out-of-bounds areas that demand accurate shot-making. Notable characteristics include tiered greens requiring careful positioning below pin placements, numerous sand bunkers, and several risk-reward holes. Par 5s reach up to 570 yards, while par 3s range from 95 to 152 yards. The design emphasizes placing tee shots in specific fairway locations to set up approach shots effectively. Key holes include the longest par 5 at hole 13 and the demanding finishing hole 18, a 430-yard par 4 framed by mature oak trees. The course is conveniently located off College Drive near I-10, serving as one of the area's busiest layouts.
