The Meet

by Donna Dye

The Stanford Invitational is held on the grounds of the Stanford University Golf Course in the foothills above the Stanford University Campus.  According to the golf course website, "the golf course is consistently rated one of the finest courses in the world. In 1998, the golf course was rated 91st in the country by Golf Week Magazine and in 1993 was rated 88th in the world by Golf Magazine."  But in addition to golf, the golf course also hosts many other intercollegiate and non-collegiate events including this week's Stanford Invitational Cross Country Meet.  In the Stanford tradition,  the Stanford Golf Course has produced many top golfers through the years including:  PGA Tour professionals Tom Watson, Tiger Woods and Notah Begay III.
