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.

Stay off the rough
Awesome course. Tight fairways. Not so fast greens. But stay away from the long grass. Highly recommended.
Always enjoy playing here
One of my favorite course in SF. Tee box to green is well maintained. The roughs are tough but fair. Fairways immaculate. The greens were on the slower side today however consistent. Look forward to the next game.
Course in very good winter shape. Bunkers a little thin. Rough wasn’t super long but no bargain. Fairways were pinched in like the pga tournament. Greens were medium fast and true. Only allowing twosomes out so pace was 4 hrs. Highly recommend.
Fun, challenging
Tee boxes were fine. Fairways and rough were great condition. Greens had a ton of ball marks, but still ran true and quick. Only complaint were the bunkers. I was in a few, and all were very compact with very little sand to work with. The guys in my group also complained (they were in them a lot, which made for an even longer day with the condition of them). Even walking by fairway bunkers, I would see tons of weeds growing in some spots. Other than that, great course, fun and challenging, and I’ll go back.
Great to play the course, but we didn’t know the 5:10 pm tee time was too late to complete the entire round. Not sure why that tee time was offered. We struggled to get through 15 holes before darkness. On course management for slow pace of play was non existent. A very disappointing end to our trip.
A Must Play
Beautiful course. Can’t say anything bad about this place. This is the second time I have played it, both times I got a hot deal. This is the only way I will play it as it is very expensive for non- resident.
Make sure to bring a camera, you have to t as ke a few pictures.
