Plainfield Country Club in Edison is one of New Jersey's most significant private golf institutions, with a layout by Donald Ross that has hosted three US Opens and has hosted USGA championships more recently. The club sits in Edison Township just over the Middlesex-Union county line from its Plainfield namesake — a geographic quirk that has confused visitors for decades. Ross's design philosophy, emphasizing crowned greens that shed approach shots and demand precision, is on full display at Plainfield, where the Watchung Mountain foothills create natural topographic movement.
