Southern Hills Country Club
Southern Hills Country Club is a private golf and country club in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
== History ==
The club was established in 1936 from land donated by multimillionaire oilman Waite Phillips. Waite Phillips had what is known as “oil money” that is very prevalent to Oklahoma and the Midwest. However, upon the crash of the stock market, Phillips became The First National Bank of Tulsa’s chairman. With his oil money and with his reputation, Bill Warren and Cecil Canary asked Phillips to sponsor a new country club that was in the hopes of being established. They argued that there was the need for a family-oriented club that would include a swimming pool, stable, horseback trails, polo field, skeet range, tennis courts, clubhouse and golf course.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.pga.com/pgachampionship/2007/news/20060228_history.html )〕 Phillips, of course, was skeptical of this proposition, and in response he told Warren and Canary that they had a couple of weeks to assume 150 pledges to become members of this club. Each of those pledges paying $1,000 each, in total accumulating $150,000 to begin the vision of this club.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.pga.com/pgachampionship/2007/news/20060228_history.html )〕 The construction costs were raised by the founding members.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.pga.com/pgachampionship/2007/news/20060228_history.html )〕 The clubhouse, designed in "English country manor" style by Tulsa architects John Duncan Forsyth and Donald McCormick, opened on October 17, 1936;〔 〕 the clubhouse was extensively renovated during a three-year project prior to the 2007 PGA tournament.〔 〕
