The Manhattanville men's and women's golf programs are blessed to compete and play on some of the finest country clubs in the Northeast and the country. While Manhattanville Golf does not call one specific course home, our teams have many local courses all located within 10 miles from campus, including the ones below, that the players use to hone their skills both at daily practice rounds or when hosting annual tournaments.

Ranked as one of the top 75 golf courses in the United States by Golf Digest, Hudson National Golf Club is less than 30 minutes from campus and provides spectacular views of the Hudson River in addition to a world-class challenge for Manhattanville's golfers. A Tom Fazio design, Hudson National served as host to the Manhattanville/NYU Fall Classic in October 2011 and has been the title sponsor for the Manhattanville fall invitational since 2012. |

One of the top courses in Connecticut, The Stanwich Club is just a few minutes from Manhattanville in nearby Greenwich and is an imposing test of golf for all skill levels. Long and tight with trees lining all 18 fairways, the Stanwich course features the area's fastest greens guarded by plenty of bunkers and water hazards. The host course for the 2011 Palmer Cup, the club looks to join the rotation for Manhattanville's spring invitational. |

Located just seconds from campus on Anderson Hill Road, Century Country Club is yet another challenging option available to the Valiants without leaving Purchase. A 6,807, par-71 layout, Century offers beautiful views and requires demanding shot-making. The course was designed by Colt & Alison and opened in 1908. Century has played host to the last three US Open sectional qualifiers and always continues to be a tough test for the many PGA and mini tour players that attempt to qualify here. |

Another excellent local course, Doral Arrowwood, is only a few miles up Anderson Hill Road in neighboring Rye Brook and serves as the main practice facility for the Manhattanville golfers for short-game and range usage. A spectacular nine-hole course designed by Robert von Hagge, the designer of the "Blue Monster" in Miami, its 3,200-yard, par-35 layout makes it one of the most difficult nine-hole courses in the country and a great challenge for the Valiant golfers. |

Located in nearby Rye, The Apawamis Club is one of the oldest clubs in the country dating back to 1890. Not a long course at 6,471 yards from the back tees, Ben Hogan once called it "the toughest short course I have ever played." Its 18-hole, par-72 course features small greens and demands pin-point accuracy from its golfers, providing a great practice course for Manhattanville. It has served as host to many AJGA and local invitationals, and is where Sergio Garcia earned his first amateur win in the United States. |

Overlooking the Long Island Sound and located in nearby Mamaroneck, Hampshire Country Club served as host of the Manhattanville/NYU Fall Classic in October 2009 and the Manhattanville/NYU Spring Invitational in April 2012. Built in 1927, the course features small and elevated greens as well as narrow, tree-lined fairways. Combined with hilly terrain and plenty of water, Hampshire is a great place for Valiant golfers to test their skills. |

Located just off Purchase Street, Brae Burn Country Club has served as host to many WGA and MGA events as well as hosting the annual Brae Burn Invitational, which features the best local amateurs from around the tri-state area. |
