On This Day in Alexandria History
November 10, 1900
On November 10, 1900, the Alexandria Golf Club, located on Shuter’s Hill, hosted its first tournament. Golf course designer Robert White of Cincinnati had laid out the links that fall, and the following year, a clubhouse was built. Entrance fees at the nine-hole course were $5 for men and $3 for women.
