Franklin D. Roosevelt Golf Course
A flat and open public course in South Philadelphia — par 69
Description
The Experience
Since club selection is often dictated by the prevailing winds, you can play FDR often and never play the same course twice. Wide fairways provide generous landing areas and large-sized greens are well guarded by numerous bunkers.
In addition to natural wetlands, a canal runs through the course and crosses the fairway of the 420-yard signature 10th hole. Overall, water hazards can come into play on a total of ten holes.
Franklin D. Roosevelt Golf Club features magnificent views of the Philadelphia skyline that will serve as a backdrop on many of your shots.
