The historic Cobbs Creek Golf Course, which shares territory in Upper Darby and West Philadelphia, is becoming the Cobbs Creek Golf Campus, a modern facility that will offer new golf opportunities and a chance to educate, writes Miklos Breitner for Golf Business Monitor.

The Cobbs Creek Golf Campus will phase in over three years.

A new short course, a TGR Learning Lab, and Toptracer, a state-of-the-art golf entertainment venue, will open in 2025.

TGR Design, utilizing Tiger Wood’s vision, is creating the short course. It will provide a world-class golf experience to the local community and will be accessible to all ages and abilities.

The TGR Learning Lab, created through a partnership between the Cobbs Creek Foundation and the TGR Foundation, a Tiger Woods charity, will provide a STEM education, college access, and career readiness programs to 4,500-plus local 1st through 12th-grade students per year.

Toptracer will have practice bays, a Heritage Center to learn about the history of Cobbs Creek, a golf retail pro shop, an indoor-outdoor bar, a restaurant, and a community event space.

A restored Olde Course opens in 2026, while a new 9-hole course opens in 2027.  Flood control and creek restoration are also planned.
