St. David's Golf Club ☆ Follow

St. Davids Golf Club is a family-oriented club founded in 1897 in Wayne, PA. The Donald Ross-designed golf course dates to 1927 and has hosted many regional tournaments and qualifiers. The course is 6,608 yards and plays to a par of 70. Located in Wayne, PA, adjacent to the Valley Forge Military Academy, the club resides within the relaxed woodsy backroads of the Philadelphia Main Line.

The course is typical of Ross' style, with many down-and-up holes and plenty of elevated greens. The course has two distinct personalities—one side of the road features sweeping, up-and-down holes that flow with the terrain, while the opposite side offers six holes with character. The deceptively hilly terrain with its interaction with bunkers and greens is the essence of the design, featuring very few forced carries, very few water hazards, and effective bunker placement and shaping. The club recently underwent a restoration project that returned the course to Ross' original vision, with firm and fast putting surfaces and additional bunkers.
