Baltusrol Golf Club\u2019s Lower Course, an A.W. Tillinghast masterpiece in Springfield, New Jersey, opened in 1922 and built an enviable championship resume over the next century, hosting four U.S. Opens, two PGA Championships, three U.S. Amateurs and a U.S. Women\u2019s Open.<\/p>\n

In 2018, Baltusrol turned to renowned architect Gil Hanse to chart a path back to its roots. Hanse was tasked with developing a comprehensive master restoration plan for the Lower Course, a project designed to recapture many of the architectural features and strategic elements that had been lost over time.<\/p>\n

The timing was significant. The Lower Course was preparing for another prominent stretch on the championship stage, with the 2023 KPMG Women\u2019s PGA Championship and the 2029 PGA Championship already on the calendar. The restoration represented not only an investment in the club\u2019s future but also a commitment to preserving one of golf\u2019s most storied venues.<\/p>\n

“Few clubs have played a larger role in USGA championship history than Baltusrol, and we’re excited to continue that partnership for the next generation of championships,” said John Bodenhamer, USGA chief championships officer. “From the club’s leadership to its membership, Baltusrol has always embraced what it means to host a national championship, and has repeatedly proven itself as a stage that identifies deserving champions at every level of the game.”<\/p>\n

Founder Louis Keller established the club in 1895 on land once owned by a farmer named Baltus Roll, which is how the club got its name. The club is currently No. 34 on the Golfweek’s Best top 200 classic courses list.<\/a><\/p>\n

“Baltusrol has been part of the fabric of American championship golf for more than a century, and we are honored that the USGA continues to entrust our membership with hosting some of the game’s most important events,\u201d said Baltusrol President Doug Rotatori. \u201cThe 2033 U.S. Mid-Amateur, 2039 U.S. Amateur, 2046 U.S. Open and future U.S. Women\u2019s Open represent an extraordinary run of championships for our club, and our membership and staff look forward to preparing our venue to once again test the best players in the world.”<\/p>\n

The U.S. Open will be contested on the Lower Course, while the two amateur championships will utilize both the Lower and Upper Courses, with the primary course determined at a later date. The course for the U.S. Women’s Open will be announced along with its date, according to a release from the USGA.<\/p>\n
