The Save Muny DLC brings one of the most historically significant golf courses in the American South to GOLF+.
GOLF+ has revealed the “Save Muny” DLC for their golf simulator. The DLC reimagines the historically important course restored with a revived routing, restored greens, and thoughtful modern touches.
Opened in 1924, Austin’s Lions Municipal Golf Course (affectionately known as “Muny”) holds a unique place in sports history as one of the first desegregated golf courses in the American South. For decades, Muny embodied the ideals of inclusiveness and equality in sports by welcoming players from all backgrounds onto the same fairways.
Today, however, the course faces mounting pressure from Austin’s booming real estate market. Valuable land naturally attracts developers, who argue that the land on which the golf course sits could serve a broader purpose. Save Muny believes that not every acre should be viewed through the lens of profit. Public golf courses like Muny provide affordable recreation, green space, and a rare sense of community in cities which seem ever more expensive and exclusive.

Golf+ is out now on Quest for $29.99, while the Save Muny DLC costs $11.99.
At the time of this writing, the base game is also available as part of the Horizon+ subscription service’s games catalog.
