Prelude - Austin Open

Onion Creek Club

Friday, November 2, 2018




EVENT OVERVIEW

 

Onion Creek Club is one of the most historic clubs in the Central Texas area, established in 1974 by Austin native Jimmie Connolly and Legendary Golfer Jimmy Demaret. Jimmy Demaret is quoted as saying “Nature put it here, all I did was manicure it”. Jimmy Demaret had the vision to let the lay of the land dictate the course layout, and with that simple understanding of course design created a beautiful and challenging course that top professionals to beginners enjoy to this day. 

 

In the mid 90’s Ben Crenshaw and Bill Coore lent a hand in shaping an additional nine to complete the twenty-seven hole layout as we know it today. Onion Creek Club has had quite a history and is known for the “Birthplace of the Senior Tour” back in 1979 the first “Legends of Golf” was held at Onion Creek Club and the rest is history.  Onion Creek Club also hosted three LPGA Tour Events 1999, 2000, and 2001. Today Onion Creek is a host site for the UIL State Championships, numerous junior competitions, and a qualifying site for the Men’s U.S. Open.
