BROOKLINE, Mass. — This year's U.S. Open layout, The Country Club, will host its 15th USGA championship – and third U.S. Open – this week just west of downtown Boston. It is arguably one of the most unique venues in that its layout has changed considerably over the years.

Routing history
The Country Club didn’t move beyond 18 holes until the addition of the nine-hole Primrose Course, which officially opened in 1929. Still, The Country Club would not introduce a routing involving a composite of the 18-hole Main and nine-hole Primrose courses for major tournaments held at the club until 1957.
