The Brookline Golf Course, otherwise known as the Robert T. Lynch Municipal Golf Course is a well known public golf facility located in Brookline, Massachusetts. Known for its scenic landscapes, rich history, and well kept course layout, it has remained a popular destination for golf enthusiasts living in the Greater Boston area for almost a century.

History

The Brookline Golf Course was established in 1933 and has since become a staple in the community. Named after Robert T. Lynch, a prominent figure in the local golf scene, the course was designed by the famous golf course architect Wayne Stiles. Over the years, the course has undergone several renovations to maintain its standards and appeal, most notably in 2005 and 2018, ensuring that it meets the needs of modern golfers while preserving its historic charm.

Course Layout

The course features an 18-hole, par-70 layout that spans 6,283 yards from the back tees. The design incorporates rolling hills, mature trees, and strategically placed bunkers, providing a variety of challenges for golfers of all skill levels. The signature hole, the 14th, is a picturesque par-3 that requires a precise shot over a water hazard to reach the green, exemplifying the course's blend of beauty and difficulty.

Front Nine

The front nine offers a mix of holes that require precision and strategy. Highlights include: Hole 1 (Par 4): A welcoming opening hole that requires a well-placed tee shot to avoid the fairway bunkers on the left. Hole 3 (Par 5): The first par-5 on the course, this hole is reachable in two for long hitters but demands accuracy due to the narrow approach flanked by trees. Hole 7 (Par 4): A challenging dogleg right that tests golfers' ability to shape their shots around a large oak guarding the corner.

Back Nine

The back nine presents a different set of challenges, with more elevation changes and water hazards coming into play. Notable holes include:

Hole 10 (Par 4): A downhill hole with a tight fairway, where precision off the tee is crucial to set up a manageable second shot. Hole 14 (Par 3): The signature hole of the course, this picturesque par-3 requires a precise shot over a water hazard to reach the green. Club selection is critical due to the prevailing winds and the narrow landing area. Hole 18 (Par 4): The closing hole is a demanding par-4 that plays uphill. The well-bunkered green is protected by a large tree on the right, making par a worthy accomplishment to end the round.
