Myopia Hunt Club is a sporting bastion of Boston’s North Shore, where polo ponies and foxhounds once reigned supreme, yielding only slightly to the exacting demands of championship golf. Hewn from rolling, glacial terrain reminiscent of inland links, the course, conceived in 1896 by Herbert Leeds, punishes waywardness with thick fescue and deceptive undulations. Its blind shots and strategically placed bunkers reward a player who studies the course’s nuances. While the club is steeped in history, it is also rooted in the local equestrian community. Leeds returned periodically to tweak the layout, most notably in 1911 after Myopia hosted its fourth U.S. Open. Though not a course renowned for its length, its undulating greens and the punishing rough historically presented a formidable challenge, most notably demonstrated by the low winning scores during its Open years. Myopia's reputation extends beyond the fairways. The club remains a treasured haven for its active membership.
