The Golf Club

The Inwood Country Club golf course is steeped in history. It was the site of the 1921 PGA Championship, won by Walter Hagen, and the 1923 U.S. Open, where Bobby Jones captured his first major. More recently, Inwood has also hosted several metro area PGA championships. Since the mid-1990s the noted golf architect Tom Doak has been working with us to continuously improve our course. But more important than its storied history, the golf course is a challenging and immensely enjoyable course for members.
 

Head Pro

Tommy Thomas, 36-year veteran of professional golf, has been the Head Golf Pro at the Inwood country Club for 24 years. From 1977 through 1979, Tommy played on the PGA tour. Over the years he has won several tournaments including:
 

• New York Head Pro Senior Championship (2005)

• Metropolitan Senior PGA Championship (2005)

• Treiber Memorial Sr. Championship (2002)

• Westchester PGA Championship (1984)

Tommy’s favorite course on Long Island is Inwood. He takes great pride in the fact that Inwood is one of the only three clubs in the metropolitan area to host two different major championships (1921 PGA Championship won by Walter Hagen and the 1923 US Open won by Bobby Jones). Tommy oversees the golf staff and all aspects of golf operations a Inwood, including the golf pro shop. Cameron Wood and Yutaka Okada are the two pros that work with Tommy.

Tommy was born and raised in Ottawa Hills in Toledo, Ohio. He attended Indiana University on a golf scholarship and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in 1972. In addition to various political clubs, Tommy was a member of Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity where he was voted “Man of the Year.” Tommy currently lives in Lynbrook and has two grown children, Matthew and Sarah.
