Los Angeles Country Club will host the U.S. Women’s Open for the first time in 2032, the USGA has announced. The historic club, situated on the edge of Beverly Hills, is already set to host the men’s U.S. Open next June. LACC will now host the U.S. Open in 2039 as well.
The Opens will be contested on the North Course, which was restored to its original George C. Thomas Jr. design by Gil Hanse in 2010.
This continues the trend of the top women in the world now competing on the same premiere venues as the men.
“We could not be more excited to bring our two biggest national championships to The Los Angeles Country Club and extend our relationship with the club that dates back more than 90 years,” said John Bodenhamer, USGA chief championships officer, in a release. “This is a tremendous sports town, an enthusiastic golf community and home to a great venue for championship golf. We’re very much looking forward to next year’s U.S. Open and thrilled to be returning twice more in the future.”
The first USGA championship played on the North Course was the 1930 U.S. Women’s Amateur, when Glenna Collett Vare captured the fifth of her record six titles. The U.S. Amateur, won by Foster Bradley Jr., followed in 1954. Most recently, Team USA enjoyed a 19-7 drumming of Great Britain and Ireland in the Walker Cup at LACC in 2017.
Next year, the Women’s Open will be contested at Pebble Beach for the first time. In 2026, the championship heads to Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, California.
