Edinburgh USA is a great public golf course designed and created by Robert Trent Jones II and operated by the Brooklyn Park Recreation and Parks Department. It is a Scottish design with nearly 70 bunkers and 12 acres of water featuring an island fairway, a peninsula green, and one of the world's largest putting surfaces. The 40,000 square foot triple green combines holes 9 and 18, and the practice green. The golf course and its surroundings feature an exciting element of 100-year old trees and other amenities. In addition, Edinburgh USA was named by Golf Digest as one of "America's Top 75 Affordable Courses," and by Golf Magazine as one of the "Top 100 Courses You Can Play in the U.S." Edinburgh USA has also hosted seven LPGA Tour events, and the 1992 U.S.G.A. Public Links Championship.
