Newton's Brae Burn Country Club Tabbed For 2 Marquee USGA Events

NEWTON, MA — Two marquee United States Golf Association events are coming to the historic Brae Burn Country Club.

The USGA said on Wednesday that the West Newton golf course will host the 2024 U.S. Women's Mid-Amateur Championship and the 2028 U.S. Women's Amateur Championship. The course, which hosted the 1919 U.S. Open, last hosted a major USGA event in 1997 when the U.S. Women’s Amateur was held there.

"We're thrilled to return to Brae Burn, a classic golf course, and to return to Boston, which has proven to be one of the finest sports cities in America," said Mark Hill, USGA senior managing director, Championships. "We know the membership at Brae Burn will provide an exemplary experience for our players as they compete for these two national championship titles."

The announcement comes amid a bit of a revival for major golf tournaments in the Greater Boston area after The Country Club of Brookline hosted this year's men's U.S. Open.

"Brae Burn is honored to continue a tradition of bringing the best in women's championship golf to the Boston community," said Brae Burn CC President Dan Moore. "2028 will be a special year as we celebrate not only our fourth U.S. Women’s Amateur Championship but also the 100th anniversary of Bob Jones' U.S. Amateur victory at Brae Burn."

Brae Burn was founded in 1897,

The 2024 U.S. Women's Mid-Amateur will be contested on the Championship Course from Sept. 7-12.

The 2028 U.S. Women’s Amateur will be held Aug. 7-13.

Champions of both the U.S. Women’s Amateur and U.S. Women's Mid-Amateur earn exemptions into the following year's U.S. Women's Open.
