Herbert Leeds
Herbert Corey Leeds (January 30, 1855 – September 29, 1930) was an American amateur golfer and golf course architect. Leeds tied for eighth place in the 1898 U.S. Open held at Myopia Hunt Club in South Hamilton, Massachusetts, a golf course of his own design.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://members.mgalinks.org/clubs.asp?cmd=&cid=777&show=off )〕〔〔 The U.S. Open was played at the Myopia Hunt Club four times, in 1898, 1901, 1905, and 1908.〔
==Early life==
Leeds was born in Boston, Massachusetts, on January 30, 1855 to James Leeds (1806–1875) and Mary Elizabeth Fearing (1822–1916). He was the youngest of six children.〔 He graduated from Harvard University where, in addition to completing his Bachelor of Arts studies in 1877, he played baseball.〔 Leeds was born into a wealthy family and was a life-long sportsman, being adroit at both sailing and golf.〔
It was no accident that he played so well at Myopia Hunt Club—he designed the course himself in 1894 and worked there for 30 years. And he would go on to build several other layouts in his career as a golf course architect. He also designed the private Bass Rocks Golf Club〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.worldgolf.com/courses/usa/massachusetts/gloucester/bass-rocks-golf-club-private.html )〕 in Gloucester, Massachusetts, and the Kebo Valley Club〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.worldgolf.com/courses/usa/maine/barharbor/kebo-valley-club-semi-private.html )〕 in Bar Harbor, Maine. Also appearing on his dossier is the Palmetto Golf Club in Aiken, South Carolina, completed in 1895.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.palmettogolfclub.net/uploads/3/4/0/8/3408231/our_history.pdf )〕 He was a member of the USGA executive committee in 1905.〔
