Westridge Golf Course opened in McKinney, Texas, designed by Jeff Brauer, a Dallas-based architect known for his work throughout the Southwest and his practical approach to golf course design. Brauer, who studied under Pete Dye and has designed or renovated numerous courses across Texas and neighboring states, created Westridge as a daily-fee facility serving the rapidly growing northern Dallas suburbs. The course reflects his philosophy of building playable layouts that accommodate a range of skill levels while incorporating strategic elements for better players. The routing takes advantage of the gently rolling terrain characteristic of Collin County, with elevation changes that are modest but sufficient to create visual interest and variety in shot-making demands. Native grasses and trees frame the holes, and water features come into play on several holes, typical of North Texas golf course design where irrigation ponds serve both aesthetic and functional purposes. The layout offers multiple tee boxes to adjust yardage and difficulty for different players. McKinney's location roughly thirty miles north of Dallas places Westridge in a region that has seen substantial residential and commercial development over the past two decades. The course serves both local residents and visitors to the area, providing an accessible option in a market with numerous public and semi-private facilities. The design emphasizes conditioning and playability rather than extreme difficulty, consistent with Brauer's reputation for creating courses that balance challenge with enjoyment for daily-fee clientele.
