Club history

Jack Nicklaus first came to Collier Township in the late 1980s. Along with his father George, partner Mike Dempster and developer Rick Stambrosky, they built a championship-caliber golf course in the Pittsburgh area surrounded by custom built homes. Close to one million cubic yards of earth was moved to make way for the club, which opened for play in 1992.

From 1998 until 2005, the club was the host site for the annual Mario Lemieux Celebrity Invitational, which was an event on the Celebrity Players Tour. The tournament raised millions of dollars for cancer research over the eight years of the tournament.[ citation needed ] The streets on the site of the club are named after many of the Jack Nicklaus-designed courses.
