Marine Drive Golf Club
For over 85 years, the Members of Marine Drive have set standards of excellence. An ideally situated and mature course, Marine Drive has been the home of many champions including Stan Leonard, the Club's long-time honorary professional. At just over 6,300 yards from the blue tees, it is certainly known for its difficulty as opposed to its length, but at par 71, many players will tell you it plays longer than expected. It has certainly earned the respect of many a fine player as well as many of golf's top pundits.
