Ridglea Country Club

Ridglea Country Club's North Course was designed by John Bredemus in 1928 and operated as a public golf course owned by Bernie L. Anderson and Morris E. Berney. Bredemus, known as the Father of Texas Golf, created over 100 courses, including notable DFW-area layouts like Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth and Memorial Park in Houston. The Luther Group acquired the property and refurbished the North Course in 1954 under Ralph Plummer—a Dallas architect behind about 45 Texas courses such as Preston Trail and Dallas Athletic Club—opening the club that September as Ridglea Country Club, renamed from the planned Western Hills Country Club of Ridglea. Plummer also designed the South Course, a championship men-only layout measuring 7,200 yards, which opened with its clubhouse in 1967 a few miles south. The North Course underwent further changes with a 1987 redesign by Jay Morrish, who partnered with Tom Weiskopf on projects like TPC Las Colinas near Dallas and Troon North in Arizona. In 1974, members bought the club from the Luther and Western Hills Groups. Both courses have hosted qualifiers for the U.S. Open, U.S. Amateur, Texas State Open, and National Big I Junior tournament. As of 2026, the South Course is undergoing renovation by Tripp Davis involving tees, fairways, and infrastructure as part of an $18 million project.
