| Over the years, the Mad Anthonys has had the opportunity
to be hosted by several beautiful facilities around Fort
Wayne. From Brookwood Golf Club to Orchard Ridge Country
Club and several facilities in between. The current primary
facilities who will play host to our tournament in the
immediate future are both storied and beautiful facilities.
Fort Wayne Country Club, founded in 1908 is one of the most
pristine private golf facilities in the country. Sycamore
Hills Golf Club was once the personal property of the former
Essex Wire Magnet, Walter Probst. It now boast of 18 of the
most incredible golf holes ever designed by the greatest
golfer yet to play the game, Jack Nicklaus. Scroll down to
see what Mr. Nicklaus has to say about Sycamore. |
For
nearly a century, the Fort Wayne Country Club has been
nestled on 355 acres southwest of downtown Fort Wayne. Since
it’s founding, the club has been a retreat that members and
their families can call their own. Today’s members still
enjoy the same time honored traditions as our members did in
1911. Our members enjoy a spacious 38,000 square foot
clubhouse with room for formal and casual dining, as well as
the Grill room, the Gazebo, men and women locker rooms and a
card room all with spectacular views of our Scottish style
golf course.

"In my opinion, Sycamore Hills is one of the finest sites
we've ever had the opportunity on which to design a golf
course. I know Jim Kelley says that I tell all the owners
that, but Sycamore Hills truly is a very, very fine site. It
has gorgeous trees, great movement of property, and it had
some existing lakes that really functioned quite well. The
site had a little river moving though the property which
really afforded a lot of opportunities to create different
shots. We had the opportunity to create a very diverse set
of holes for Sycamore Hills and the course should be
considered as one of the finest golf courses in the United
States, as time goes on."
– Jack Nicklaus
