The Links at Audubon

The Links at Audubon, Memphis's flagship municipal course inside Audubon Park. John Stevens laid out the original in 1951, and in late 2022 the course closed for a $8-9M Bill Bergin renovation that re-greened the entire course, rebuilt the bunkers with deep-faced modern shapes, and reshaped the green complexes. DB field crediting John Van Kleek (1927) is stale, the documented architects are Stevens (1951 original) and Bergin (2022-23 renovation). The reopened 6,423-yard par-70 routing wins the closest-to-ANGC category for municipal bunker work, conditioning and shaping reviewers have called 'hard to believe you're on a muni.' Holes 11 and 12 got the biggest design wins in the Bergin redo; the 6-9 stretch has great natural grass features around the landing zones. Most-improved green roll in the city. One of the better municipal renovations of the 2020s wave. Pair with Mirimichi for a Memphis muni-and-resort double.
