Located at The Tribute Resort Community north of Dallas, The Old American is in elite company, alongside a PGA TOUR event host-course and world famous resorts, such as Bandon Dunes. GOLF Magazine praised The Old American's championship layout and breathtaking views, stating, "The subtle, thought-provoking track evokes the bunkering and risk/reward strategies of classics such as Prairie Dunes and Shinnecock Hills and pairs them with eye-candy views of Lewisville Lake."
"GOLF Magazine is one of the foremost authorities on the game and The Old American's inclusion on its list of best new courses serves as further proof that Tripp and Justin have created one of the best playing experiences in the country," says Jeff Kindred, PGA General Manager.
The latest distinction adds to an already impressive list of accolades for The Old American including being named "Best New" by LINKS Magazine, Golfweek and AVID Golfer.

About The Old American Golf Club
Inspired by the 'Golden Age' of golf course architecture between 1911 and 1937, The Old American's natural contours, hazard styles, native grasses and green shapes were influenced by such masterpieces as Shinnecock Hills, National Golf Links, Prairie Dunes and Crystal Downs.
Davis, an accomplished amateur player and former All-American at the University of Oklahoma and Leonard, who played his college golf at the University of Texas, toured and played a handful of America's classic Golden Age golf courses prior to starting the design process for The Old American.
The result is a golf course that emphasizes strategy and shot-making and flows with a natural rhythm from first tee to 18th green. The Old American features six sets of tees, ranging from the 5215-yard forward markers to the 7174-yard "Leonard" tournament tees. Davis and Leonard conceived the routing and layout with both medal and match play in mind, as golfers are required to hold "steady to par" through a number of holes, but enticed to gamble on birdie or better during select stretches of the course.
