Description
From 1963 to 1980 a new tournament on the pro tour called the Whitemarsh Open, later the Philadelphia Classic and finally the IVB Golf Classic, started with Arnold Palmer being the first winner. Jack Nicklaus won in '64, '65 and '78. Nicklaus won his largest purse to date with $24,000.
Tom Kite won his first PGA Tour event here in 1976, and he along with Gary Player, each shot a course record 63 during the Pro-Am session. The Champion's Cup for this event with a list of winners is on display in our Grille Room.
Whitemarsh has a history rich in heritage. With a membership that is sensitive to family oriented activities whether at the pool, on the golf course, or with fine dining; it's all here - welcome to Whitemarsh Valley Country Club!
