Waialae Country Club

USA, Hawaii, Oahu
4.8 (5)
Course Opened: 1926

In Volume 2 of The Confidential Guide to Golf Courses, Tom Doak published that.

“As host to the annual Hawaiian Open on the PGA Tour, Waialae has become well known for low scoring, which is partly attributable to its perfect conditioning. It’s hard to see some of the Raynor templates on TV through the monotony of bermudagrass, and the club did sell out three oceanfront holes on the front nine in the 1960’s to make room for housing and the Kahala Hotel. But the bones of a good course are there, and I’m consulting with the club to remove the buildup of dust so its charm can shine through.“

The Waialae Country Club received a score of 5 out of 10 from Tom Doak and a score of 5 out of 10 from one of his co-authors.
