[2][4] The golf course hosted the PGA Championship in 1939, in which Henry Picard defeated Byron Nelson in the final in 37 holes.
[5] The match play event was held in July during the New York World's Fair, which was located at Flushing Meadows–Corona Park, approximately two miles (3 km) northwest.
The former course of Fresh Meadow Country Club was a few miles east (40°43′59″N 73°46′48″W / 40.733°N 73.78°W / 40.733; -73.78); it hosted the PGA Championship in 1930 and the U.S. Open in 1932.
That course was sold in 1946 for development and the club moved to Lake Success, five miles (8 km) northeast.
