LOS ANGELES – Comedian Fred Allen once described the City of Angels as a nice place to live if you happen to be an orange.
But it’s a great place to visit – especially when there’s a golf tournament going on nearby. In this case, the 123rd U.S. Open at Los Angeles Country Club’s North Course located at the juncture of Beverly Hills, Westwood and Century City.
Work trips to the Genesis Invitational at Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades have given me a good excuse to explore Tinseltown and with the U.S. Open returning there for the first time since 1948 I’ve compiled a list of favorites – some of my own and some recommended by my local peeps in the area.
