I was born in SF and have played - practiced at Harding most of my life.
20 years ago this city owned course was upgraded with a 2 year renovation project, including construction of new greens and bunkers, new practice area and new clubhouse. In exchange for the upgrade
the PGA of America and PGA Tour agreed to hold some future events at Harding.To date the "new Harding" has hosted a WGC, President's Cup, and three Charles Schwab Cup Senior Tour events.
For this week's PGA Championship Harding has constructed 5 new tee boxes which increase the total length of the course by about 350 yards. Also, the fairways have been narrowed to an average width of about 25 yards. Harding's relatively small greens are mostly flat with subtle breaks.
On the property there is also a 9 hole short course, and this week a couple of those holes will be used as a makeshift driving range and short game practice area. The golf equipment company trucks/Tour vans are at an off site parking lot.
If you've played Harding Park please post here your thoughts about the course.
