 John F. Byrne Golf Club In the early 1960s the City of Philadelphia purchased this course and later renamed it the John F. Byrne Golf Club after the famous Philadelphia councilman. The layout is one of the most respected courses in Philadelphia and has hosted numerous tournaments including the Philadelphia PGA Senior Publinks Championship. Nestled in and around a valley, the course features a variety of tree-lined and open fairways. Several elevated tees and greens accent the rolling terrain, creating dramatic changes in elevation. The Torresdale Creek winds its way through the course, coming into play on a total of ten holes. In addition to the water hazards, this picturesque golf course features oversized bunkers that are strategically placed to protect the medium-sized greens.
