The host of this week's US Open, Los Angeles Country Club, is nestled in Hollywood's heart, but you won't find a single famous person on view. That's because the Beverly Hills course is so exclusive that even celebrities do not apply. The US Open is returning to Los Angeles for the first time in 75 years and visiting LACC for the first time ever this week, but the major championship has had to fight its way into the club's fairways. For most golf clubs, staging a major would be an honor, but LACC has canceled the US Open time and time again, making it a much more private venue than the host of The Masters, Augusta National. Although Augusta National is known for its limited, exclusive membership of 300 people with an invitation that was your only ticket in, LACC's membership is the country's best kept mystery.
