Recent improvements in drainage, bunkering and complete redo of several green complexes have propelled this course into the upper stratosphere of great New England golf courses. Conditions and overall turf management have always been stellar. They have "flip flopped" the nines so the old 2nd is now the 11th - what a beast!!!! There is no prettier hole than the new #3 which is also a bear with the pin in the front-right position. With the addition of a totally brand new gorgeous clubhouse, Wellesley C.C. can not be beat - PERIOD.
