A. W. Tillinghast

Albert Warren "Tillie" Tillinghast (1874–May 19, 1942) was a noted American golf course architect. Tillinghast was one of the most prolific architects in the history of golf; he worked on no fewer than 265 different courses.

Tillinghast-designed courses have hosted multiple professional golf major championships—the 1927 PGA Championship, contested at Cedar Crest Park; the 2002 U.S. Open, contested at Bethpage State Park; the 2005 PGA Championship, contested at Baltusrol Golf Club, which has also been the host of seven U.S. Opens; the 2006 U.S. Open, contested at Winged Foot Golf Club— and many others. Plus the 1935 iteration of the Ryder Cup Matches (Ridgewood Country Club). He died in 1942 in Toledo, Ohio.
