New photos from @CBenjaminPhoto of The Institute Golf Club in the Morgan Hill area of San Jose, owned by the Fry family, formerly of Fry’s Electronics. From 1995–2019, the 8,069-yard design operated almost in secrecy as an executive-only, invitation-only experience. It has since been re-established as an ultra-high-end, member-owned private club, with fewer than 50 members. The club hosted a NCAA Regional tournament in 2023—with team winners Mississippi State and individual winner Luke Clanton of Florida State—and has plans to host other significant tournaments in the near future. “What impressed me the most about The Institute is that it has its own identity,” says Benjamin. “It isn’t loud, and it doesn’t need to be. It’s confident enough to let the golf course speak for itself.”

“When Alexander saw the breadth of his domain he wept, for there were no more worlds to conquer.” Irving Azoff, contrarily, is not a man in need of tissues. Rather, time & again,he merely finds new worlds to conquer. New for @thescga on Ladera #Golf Club: foremagazine.com/featured/de…

The only thing better than building your own golf course is building one with your best friend. 🙌 Read more: glfdig.st/mgnO50QpFjp

I had no idea how magical the beautiful Aurora Anguilla resort is. 🏖️ The crystal clear blue warm ocean is a dream come true. The golf course views are some of the best in the Caribbean, offering breathtaking scenery at every turn. #auroraanguilla #Caribbean

Who knew this place was so magical? What an incredible week of capturing rustic Canyon golf course in Moorpark, California. The weather was amazing, and the course was in top condition. This Gil Hanse designed golf gem is definitely one of my favorite public tracks in golf.
