Links Land on the Edge of the Bay

The place

Baylands is what happens when a city decides its golf course should look like the land it sits on. Open, linksy, close to the water, and honest about the wind. Palo Alto can feel like a campus and a corporation. This course feels like the Bay: tidal, a little raw, and more interesting because nobody tried to turn it into Augusta.

JW’s personal notes from the round will live here — the funny moment, the people, the 19th hole — without inventing what hasn’t been written yet.
