Old River Golf Course

Overview: The blue-tee card lists par 72 and about 6,213 yards at this Tracy public layout. Lloyd Zastre is credited with the design, and the course's current form is defined by the completion of its second nine. The San Joaquin Valley setting gives the layout open Central Valley space while the river-country name supplies its local identity.

History: The second nine opened for play in 2007, creating the present 18-hole course. That date is used as the completion date rather than pretending it is the opening date of the first nine. The available historical record identifies Zastre as architect but does not provide a fuller construction chronology, so no additional date is added.

Did You Know? Old River's most important historical fact is that its 18-hole identity is relatively recent: the course only reached its present two-nine form when the second nine opened in 2007. That makes the scorecard a completed expansion story rather than an unchanged old routing.
