THE COURSE

The 18-hole Keney Park Golf Course was designed by Devereux Emmet, with the first 9 holes opening in 1927. A preeminent figure in history of golf course architecture, Emmet is responsible for local courses such as the Hartford Golf Club and the Country Club of Farmington. The back 9 at Keney Park opened in 1930 and was designed by Robert "Jack" Ross, an engineer for the City of Hartford.

Early in 2014, Keney Park Golf Course had been the focus of a massive restoration, with design efforts led by Matthew Dusenberry of Dusenberry Design. Dusenberry, a Milwaukee based golf course architect, was a longtime associate at Greg Norman Golf Course Design, and has worked on layouts such as Doral in Miami and Doonbeg in Ireland. As of May 2016, course restoration has been completed.

Since reopening, Keney Park has played host to the Connecticut PGA Championship, Hartford Women's Open, and the National Boys and Girls Junior PGA Championships.
