La Cantera Golf Club has been highlighted in LINKS Magazine as one of the Top 10 former PGA Courses to play. "The Lone Star State is chock full of compelling public courses that doubled as longtime PGA Tour hosts. Among them are The Golf Club of Houston’s Tournament course (formerly known as Redstone), which hosted the Houston Tour stop from 2006-20; TPC Las Colinas near Dallas, formerly a Four Seasons property and now a Ritz-Carlton, home to the Byron Nelson event from 1986–2017; and Brackenridge Park in San Antonio, home to the Texas Open from 1922–26, again from 1929–40, and again on multiple occasions throughout the 1950s. Nevertheless, the most character-filled Texas public course of those that once hosted multiple PGA Tour events is La Cantera." To read more, visit https://lnkd.in/dQp6Uxvg
