Quaker Ridge Paintings and Prints

Quaker Ridge Golf Club, in Scarsdale, New York, sits alongside Winged Foot in Westchester County. The club began as a nine-hole course in 1915. A.W. Tillinghast was then engaged to redesign the existing holes and build new ones, and his 18-hole course opened in 1918; he returned to rework it again in the 1920s. The Tudor-style clubhouse was built in 1923, and the club is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Quaker Ridge is considered one of Tillinghast's finest designs, although it is less well known than its famous neighbor. Its holes run over rolling, wooded ground with many doglegs, and much of the challenge lies in the angles: fairway bunkers and tree lines reward the drive placed on the correct side of the fairway, and the greens are guarded by deep bunkers. The course has preferred regional and amateur championships to professional ones.

Quaker Ridge hosted the Walker Cup in 1997 and the Curtis Cup in 2018, and it has hosted the Metropolitan Open and many other championships of the Metropolitan Golf Association.

The club's early professionals were the Farrell brothers, Johnny and Jimmy; Johnny Farrell won the 1928 U.S. Open. At the 1936 Metropolitan Open at Quaker Ridge, a young Byron Nelson won the first significant professional victory of his career.

Linda Hartough's Quaker Ridge painting shows the 9th, a par 4 to a raised green, with the clubhouse behind.

The Quaker Ridge print is available as a print on fine art paper, in a limited edition, at 10"x20".
