Welcome to Week Two of The Brew Crew Season 8 - The Knoxville Open at Wicker Club
This week takes us to Wicker Club, a boreal course designed by Mr. Collin Lamar, his first TGC Tours course. Notes from the designer:
Welcome to the "Wicker Club," a secluded golf haven straddling state borders. Originating in the early 1910s, the estate was first acquired by the wealthy rock magnate, Richard Hardwood, for tax-saving purposes, ferrying stones from his quarry to affluent clients across state lines. As Prohibition loomed in 1918, Hardwood, in collaboration with architect William Flynn, ingeniously repurposed the land into a golf course, clandestinely doubling as a conduit for bootlegging liquor across the state line during countryside picnics. The club's name, derived from the wicker baskets concealing contraband, nods to its colorful past. Today, it stands as a prestigious private course, celebrated for its history and world-class golfing experience.

One For The Road - Modified Stableford takes us to Palos Verdes Park GC, a delta themed course brought to you by our very own Brew Crew legend Konsta Kokkonen
Palo.
Designer comments: It is a fictional course located at the coast of Los Angeles, thus the name Palos Verdes. It is a park styled course with a lot of sunlight and beautiful ocean views. It has been built near suburban areas but you can also see a view of the city from time to time. Even though this is a fictional course, I tried to replicate the look and feel of a real course. It is supposed to feel like you could play this in real life, so no extreme stuff on this one. Yet again, four tee sets and four pin sets are available. Par 72, 18 holes Red - 6401 yards Yellow - 6832 yards White - 7070 yards Black - 7399 yards
