Legacy

Legendary Ryder Cup-Style Rivalry vs. Salem CC

Tedesco Country Club was founded in 1903 and is named for a ship that wrecked on these very shores two centuries ago — a fitting namesake for a course that has been humbling golfers ever since. Perched on the rocky promontories of Marblehead, the course offers glimpses of the harbor that remind you exactly where you are.

The course hosts a legendary annual Ryder Cup-style grudge match against rival Salem Country Club, and the intensity of that tradition is baked into the DNA of how this club approaches competitive golf. Tight fairways, glacially deposited rock outcroppings, and fescue rough that's been here as long as the club itself create an atmosphere that modern design simply cannot replicate.

Come with your best game and proper respect for the history underfoot.
