According to Bradley S. Klein of Golfweek, U.S. Golf Association has awarded the 2017 U.S. Women’s Open to Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, N.J.
Designed by award winning architects Tom Fazio and Tom Fazio II, the Old Course at Trump National is rated among the Top 100 Golf Courses in the World.
The 2017 U.S. Women’s Open will be the first professional national championship held on a Trump-owned and -developed golf course.
This year, the Open will be held at Blackwolf Run in Kohler, Wisconsin. Described as one of Pete Dye’s crowning achievements, Blackwolf Run is a blend of beauty and peril — combining cozy meadows and rolling streams with deep valleys and charging ravines.
Point of Note: The U.S. Women’s Open is Not LPGA TOUR co-sponsored. This event began in 1946 and is the longest-running event currently on the LPGA Tour. It is one of the LPGA’s four major championships.
