TPC Harding Park - Harding Course
About
TPC Harding Park ranks among the most famous municipal courses in the country, along with Torrey Pines South and Bethpage Black. TPC Harding Park, which is part of the San Franciso Recreation and Parks Department, hugs the shores of Lake Merced in close proximity to the Lake Merced Golf Club, The Olympic Club and San Francisco Golf Club. Dating to 1925, it has a long history of tournament golf among its stately Monterey Cypress trees. Byron Nelson won back-to-back San Francisco Opens in 1944-45. The PGA Tour's Lucky International in the 1960s attracted winners such as Gary Player (1961), Gene Littler (1962), Jackie Burke Jr. (1963), Ken Venturi (1966) and Billy Casper (1968).
After falling on hard times, the course received a $16-million renovation in 2002-03 that brought it back into the tournament fold, hosting the 2005 World Golf Championship-American Express Championship, the 2015 WGC-Match Play Championship, The Presidents Cup in 2009, the Charles Schwab Cup Championship from 2010-12 and the 2020 PGA Championship, its first major.

Just Amazing
Golf course is in championship conditions imposible to find the valla if they land in the rough. Green are slower than the tournament...what an experience!!!!
Exceptional Course
Had the opportunity to play this course. It is dialed in! The roughs are beyond rough. Ready for the PGA Championship!!!!
Harding Park
Played the course today — beautiful day while workers setting up for PGA 2020. Course is getting into PGA condition. Rough is challenging but not impossible. Fun round today.
It's all in the name
Course is fairly ho hum. There weren't many memorable holes although 14 was a nice layout and good looking hole.
Course was playing tough with narrow fairways, 20 yards across, and relatively heavy rough, say 4-5 inches. Tough to play after a day of rain.
Fairways and rough were lush and soggy. Greens were slow and pretty rough as it looks like players don't repair their ballmarks.
Play here is you want to watch on TV and say I remember that hole. I would only play here with a resident discount.
It is a nice course, but fairly unremarkable.
Tough track!
Played on a typical December day in San Francisco - temperature was in the high 50’s, overcast and a slight breeze. It did not rain while we played, but it had been raining most of the week prior, so the course was still very wet. They are definitely gearing up for the PGA Championship with extra long rough and super tight fairways, and the greens were even quicker than usual. Overall, the course was very challenging given the conditions, but it was a fun time and would do it again in a heartbeat.
TPC Harding Park
Great place to play golf, great customer service, the grill was great, course was great, everything was awesome.
Beautiful back drops
Excellent course with friendly staff. Not as challenging as expected other than dealing with the roughs. Fairways and greens are in great condition. Definitely worth the price without a doubt. Will be back for the 2020 PGA Champions.
Great Weather Great Course
Course is in great shape. Had amazing fall weather. Getting the rough ready for the PGA Championship.
Sunset
I would recommend that you do away with teetimes after 330 because it gets way too dark to complete play...
if you are going to continue to offer a 330 teatime or later then discount the price because we were only able to complete 12 holes and we were only a twosome walking.
First Time Experience
Have wanted to play this course for some time. The course lived up to my expectations. The fairways had a few brown spots, but overall the course was in great shape. The greens were fast and vin great shape. The pace of play was very good, we didn't have to wait more than a few minutes on a few holes. Diffinetly looking forward to playing agin. Only downer was that the cart fees are the highest I've seen and the cost for my wife to ride along with me was $50.
Great Time, Course need more care.
Day was perfect, foursome great, service fantastic, but the course wasn't as it should be, fairway and greens were not in the way as this course deserve.
Spectacular Day for Golf
My first time playing here and it was a great day! They are obviously prepping for the PGA and narrowing the fairways and the conditions were average at best but I had a fantastic time! The layout and the views were great, staff were friendly and the pace of play was excellent. I walked and was very happy to do so, very easy for anyone to do it.
We got bashed up
Wow...what a great track....the index is probably a bit low at 126.....if you hit every fairway probably....other than that we played off the Blues and had a great day...good luck with the PGA guys...awesome.
