Lake Karrinyup Country Club

18 hole Golf course to the north of Perth City centre. 

Designed by Alex Russell, the 1924 Australian Open Champion and business partner of legendary course designer Dr Alister MacKenzie, Lake Karrinyup was constructed in the main by sixty Italian labourers who withstood sand-flies in the scrub and leeches in the lake to fashion 18 holes out of some inhospitable territory.
