Two weeks remain in the 2011 playing season at Bethpage State Park's Black Course. The Black will close for the season on Tuesday, November 15.
Despite the early taste of winter here in the Northeast this past weekend, prime golfing conditions still await the cool-weather golfer at Bethpage and across Long Island. The Black Course will be open every day between now and its mid-month closing date.
It's been another banner year at Bethpage Black. Golf Digest readers voted the course into the Sweet 16 of the mag's Fans' Choice poll, and the Digest rated Black #7 in its list of America's Greatest Public Golf Courses for 2011-12. It was also announced this summer that the course will host The Barclays next August and again in 2016.
