Tennis History Meets a Cutting-Edge Private Club Concept at The Hamlet Golf and Country Club
June 2024 marks thirteen years since Invited (formally known as ClubCorp), “The world leader of Private Country Clubs,” purchased the Hamlet Golf and Country Club in Commack, N.Y. and immediately began a multi-million-dollar renovation, including improvements to the clubhouse, golf course, tennis courts, pickleball courts, fitness center and pool area. Renovations to the Club’s bar, restaurant (the Empire Grille), patio and ballroom are complete. The beautiful Empire Grille, offers an upscale, cutting-edge menu in an inspired atmosphere. Invited’s refreshing philosophy of what the modern Country Club looks like is drawing attention from Manhattan to Montauk.
The Hamlet’s tennis history is a rich one and our exciting tennis and pickleball programming is drawing racquet sport enthusiasts of every age and level. For years, The Hamlet hosted the prestigious Hamlet Cup Tennis Tournament, the event that was used as a warmup for the U.S. Open for more than 16 years. The eight Hamlet tennis courts have been graced by such world-renowned players as Martina Navratilova, Pete Sampras, Stefan Edberg and Michael Chang, to name a few. 
Though the Hamlet Cup Tournament is now a fond memory, The Hamlet can boast new exciting traditions that are being cultivated today through programming for its members and their guests.
The Hamlet is pleased that Robbie Wagner and his amazing team of Tennis Pro’s continue to be the architects of The Hamlet Tennis/Pickleball Program this year. We are extremely excited about what Robbie and the team bring to The Hamlet. All these programs and events will be played on the Club’s six immaculate hard tennis courts, as well as the two Har-Tru courts and six pickleball courts, all of which are lit for evening play.
The Hamlet’s history and current tennis and pickleball programming make it one of the most popular destinations for racquet sport enthusiasts looking for great amenities in a private country club setting.
With such a beautiful environment in which to enjoy the game, The Hamlet has developed Social Memberships, catering to pickleball, tennis and pool enthusiasts, as well as those who are just starting to add golf to their busy lives. The Hamlet continues to be top of mind for the most discerning golfer of every skill who is looking for the Country Club lifestyle.
