Mount Bruno Golf Club
Mount Bruno Golf Club is a private club located in Saint-Bruno-de-Montarville, Quebec, Canada. It is reputed to be one of the most exclusive golf clubs in Canada, [1] and it has hosted the Canadian Open twice:
- in 1922, won by Al Watrous
- in 1924, won by Leo Diegel
The course was originally designed by Willie Park, Jr., later renovated by Stanley Thompson and Tom McBroom. It has members from all over the world. Its mountain terrain is difficult because the ball often breaks in the opposite direction from what golfers are expecting. The signature hole is the 13th, a 435-yard, par 4, which is located at the highest point on the course and offers beautiful view of the course and the surrounding valley. The elevated tee plays downhill and then requires an uphill approach to the elevated green, which slopes to the left and is protected by sand on the right and large bumps on the left side.
