Wilshire Country Club is an 18-hole private golf club on the West Coast of the United States, located in Los Angeles, California.
The club in Hancock Park was founded 105 years ago in 1919 and its Norman Macbeth-designed course opened the following year. South of Hollywood and six miles (10 km) northwest of downtown, it is bisected by Beverly Boulevard, connected by a narrow tunnel: the outgoing nine is on the south side, with the incoming nine and clubhouse on the north side.[5][6][7]
