   Golf Course Information


Description

The original golf holes in Westport, New York, was a 6-hole course called the "Westport Golf Links" - in conjunction with the then famous, now defunct Westport Inn.

Shortly after the turn of the century, the course was expanded to 9 holes under the supervision of greens-keeper Thomas Lee. At the time, it was noted, the fairways were kept closely cropped by Lee's green's crew - his flock of sheep.

In 1928, Scottish Architect, Thomas Winton was hired to turn Westport into an 18-hole course. Winton came from Montrose Scotland, where his father was a famous club-maker. He learned golf architecture from noted Scotsman Willie Park. Upon coming to the U.S., Winton was hired by the Westchester County Parks to upgrade courses in that area. Winton contributed to major renovations at famous courses, such as, Siwanoy, Apawamis, Sleepy Hollow in New York, and the Congressional Blue Course in Washington D.C. Unfortunately, Thomas Winton's years in the U.S. coincided largely with the Great Depression - when very little golf course work was contracted. Winton died shortly after finishing Westport's current 18 holes. Some say it may have been his finest completed work.
