The Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades
This club hosted the 1948 U.S. Open as well as the 1983 and 1995 PGA Championships. The PGA Tour's Nissan Open is also held here each year. The large number of professional tournaments held at this club should indicate the quality of this course. In 1992, the greens were renovated by Ben Crenshaw.
