The Boca Raton Golf Club is dedicated to golfing legends Tommy Armour, “the Silver Scot,” and “Slammin Sam” Sam Snead. Armour served as golf professional at the Resort from 1929 to 1955 and Snead was golf professional here from 1956 to 1969.

Thomas Dickson Armour was born in Edinburgh Scotland in 1895 and moved to America in 1920 and became a United States citizen. After turning pro in 1924 he went on to win 27 professional golf tournaments, including three of the four majors, the U.S. Open (1927), the PGA Championship (1930), and The Open (1931). Armour was known as an exceptional striker of the ball, and one of the finest wood-club players of all time.

Samuel Jackson Snead was born in Ashwood, Virginia in 1912. Snead won a record 82 PGA Tour events, including seven majors. PGA Championship (1942, 1949, 1951), The Open (1946), and the Masters (1949, 1952, 1954). Although he never won the U.S. Open, he was runner-up four times. Snead was known for his smooth self-taught swing and the longevity of his golf career. He still holds the record for being the oldest player, at 52, to win a PGA Tour event and the oldest to make a PGA Tour cut (when he was 67 years old).

The Historic Cloister Hotel - Located in the heart of the Resort, the 1926 Cloister Inn forms the eastern wing of the current resort. Famed Palm Beach architect Addison Mizner designed this hotel to house prospective investors in his planned Boca Raton development. The inn has Spanish-Mediterranean, Moorish and Gothic influences.  It is characterized by hidden gardens, barrel-tile roofs, archways, ornate columns, finials, intricate mosaics, fountains and beamed ceilings of ornate pecky cypress.  In 1927, Philadelphia utilities mogul Clarence Geist bought the property, turned it into an exclusive club, and by doing so, helped the community weather the Great Depression.

Discover the story of The Boca Raton through an engaging guided tour of this historic site. The Boca Raton Historical Society offers 1.5 hour strolling tour "walks" through the hotel’s story that includes its hoteliers, architecture, historic turning points such as the World War II years, and its incredible role in Boca Raton’s history since the 1920s.
