U.S. Women’s Amateur at Portland Golf Club

The United States Golf Association will hit the Pacific Northwest with its third championship in 2015 with the U.S. Women’s Amateur set for Aug. 10-16 at the Portland Golf Club.

The event will bring together the top women amateurs from around the world playing for a week at the Portland Golf Club, which celebrated its 100th anniversary last year. The Portland Golf Club is no stranger to championship golf, having hosted PGA, LPGA, the Fred Meyer Challenge and other top amateur events through the years.

It also marks the third USGA championship to be held in the Northwest in 2015. Previously, the Women’s Four Ball Championships took place at Bandon Dunes Resort and the U.S. Open was held at Chambers Bay.
