MGA MEMBERS GUIDE TO MINNESOTA GOLF
This annual directory is one of the many benefi ts of your MGA membership. It is also an indispensable tool for golfers who
want to learn more about the golf course down the street, across town, or along one of Minnesota's scenic byways and beyond.
O
ne hundred years ago, the Minnesota Golf
Association offi cially consisted of less than
20 golf clubs, most of them private. Public
golf courses such as Glenwood Golf Club
(later renamed Theodore Wirth), Columbia
Golf Club and Phalen Park Golf Course joined the association
during or immediately after the First World War. If one
can point to the origin of a stereotype, it is this fact alone
that forever paints the game as elitist, and a less-than-serious
outdoor pursuit of the leisure class. Yet, after the First
World War, the game took a decidedly public turn-especially
in Minnesota. Interest in the game among public golfers
grew, along with the burst in economic prosperity during
the Roaring Twenties.
By the summer of 1923, the MGA board recognized the
trend with motions to create a state tournament for junior
boys, and to advise the St. Paul City Council of the need
for " a fi rst-class public golf links. " That same year, with the
formation of the Minnesota Public Golf Association, Hardy
Feichtinger won the fi rst state public links championship.
Feichtinger, one of the " prime movers " in the formation of
the MPGA, was a former delegate representing Glenwood
to the MGA. If golf has long been saddled with the stereotype
that it's an elitist pastime (for its private roots), it has
survived turbulent times, economic recessions and even a
public health epidemic because of its inherent wider public
appeal. In a telling twist, it was the acceptance of organized
public golf clubs as members (by virtue of a bylaw change in
the 1950s) that saved the golf association from irrelevance.
As we enter the third decade of the 21st century, the
MGA, its 70,000 individual members and 400 member golf
clubs are solidly grounded in public golf. Today, approximately
90 percent of the golf courses in Minnesota are open
to the public, and about 70 percent of MGA members are
public golfers.
