6. Winged Foot Golf Club (East Course)
Mamaroneck, N.Y., 1923
• Ranked No. 38 in the U.S. by GOLF Magazine, Ranked No. 65 in the World by GOLF Magazine
Neither as long nor as tough as its illustrious sibling, the equally attractive East Course is preferred by many course connoisseurs for its superior pacing and variety. No stranger to big-time events, the East witnessed Roberto DeVicenzo claim the very first U.S. Senior Open here in 1980.

5. Quaker Ridge Golf Club (above)
Scarsdale, N.Y., 1926
• Ranked No. 37 in the U.S. by GOLF Magazine, Ranked No. 64 in the World by GOLF Magazine
This quiet club across the street from Winged Foot counts Jack Nicklaus and Pete Dye as admirers. Its outstanding cluster of gently rolling par-4s, notably the 6th and the 11th, were a terrific canvas for amateurs in the 1997 Walker Cup match (shown here).
