About Old Greenwood
Jack Nicklaus opened Old Greenwood as a signature design in 2004 in Truckee, just west of Lake Tahoe. The 7,518-yard layout sits at altitude in the Sierra Nevada and has been the host of the PGA Tour's Barracuda Championship, the Tour's only modified-stableford event, every year since 2020. Golf Magazine named it a Top 10 Best New Public-Access Course (2005), and Golf Digest had it #4 among America's Finest New Upscale Public Courses. Other recognition: #35 Best in California (Golf Digest 2009-10), #23 Best Courses Near You California (Golf Magazine 2008-09), and Travel + Leisure Top 100 America's Golf Communities. The Golf Channel's Matt Ginella ranks it among his three favorite Jack Nicklaus public-access designs in America. Premium pay-and-play pricing in the $$$ band; for Tahoe-area groups it pairs with Coyote Moon and Edgewood Tahoe as a three-day Lake Tahoe loop.
