Set just feet from the San Francisco Bay, Monarch Bay provides players with stunning views of the Peninsula in a city that will always have a place in golf history as the hometown of "Champagne" Tony Lema.
The course used to be called "Tony Lema Golf Course" but now that moniker is reserved for only the 18-hole layout (there is a 9 hole course on the same property). At the peak of his career, Lema died in a plane crash with the pilot trying to make an emergency landing on a golf course in Lansing, Illinois.
While the golf course is now referred to as "Monarch Bay" by most people, memorabilia of Lema's 12-win PGA Tour career is displayed in the new clubhouse, and the redesigned golf course with many Scottish links qualities (Lema won the British Open, his only major) more than makes up for the fact that most Bay Area golfers, no longer refer to the course by his name.
