The Lodhi Course is played among Mughal-era monuments including the Lal Bangla; at the 1968 Indian Open Stan Peach's approach struck the dome of one of them and rolled back onto the green to six inches.

Peter Thomson, the driving force behind the first Indian Open in 1964, won it at Delhi Golf Club and later redesigned the Lodhi Course (1976-77), restoring flat greens.

Golf Monthly reports the course is home to more than 300 species of birds, and Top 100 Golf Courses notes that each hole is named after a bird.

The club says the par-4 10th is the only hole on the Lodhi Course without a bunker; its defence is a big collection area left of the green and a steep upslope at the front.
A tree stands in the middle of the 16th fairway, which the club calls a ball magnet; the preferred drive finishes just left of it.
The club hole guide repeatedly describes a prevailing left-to-right headwind, on the 1st, the 13th (which it calls a Jekyll-and-Hyde hole for the switch between downwind and into-wind) and the 17th.

The 15th is the shortest hole on the course, yet the club says some Indian Opens have played it as a drivable par 4 near the finish.
On the 18th the club went back to the old design with no fairway bunker off the tee, so more players hit driver, and built a new green with collection areas right and short left.
Redesign of the Lodhi Course (flat greens restored); the 9-hole Peacock Course created in 1976-77
From March 2019: all greens rebuilt and enlarged, all fairway bunkers redesigned, new irrigation, fairway contouring, drainage, cart paths and tree trimming
