Have You Played Where a PGA, Champions, or LPGA Event Has Been Played?

[Maroon88]

Which courses have you played where a PGA, Champions, or LPGA event has been played?

Over the yrs I've been fortunate to play several courses where a PGA, Champions, or LPGA event was played at sometime in the past. Curious to see how many and where anyone else has played.  I've played at:

Torrey Pines South

Harbour Town in Hilton Head, SC

The Greenbriar in West Virginia

Las Colinas in Irving, TX

Kapalua

Champions Golf Club Houston, TX

Trump International Puerto Rico

Breckenridge, Pecan Valley, La Canterra, TPC San Antonio The Oaks all hosted the Texas Open at one point or another

I’ve play Royal Ka’anapali on Maui where the LPGA used to play. Lovely course.

I've played at TPC Deer Run.   It's a nice course, and I can see where the Pros could go low.

Many times, though it's almost never an actual goal.

Heck, I just played Erin Hills and Brown Deer Park in a few days at the end of 2025. 🙂

A few, Kapalua, Congressional, Pinehurst #2, Pine Needles, Blackwolf Run, Whistling Straits, Royal Troon, Turnbury, St Andrews, Carnoustie, Kingsbarns, Ballyliffin, Killarney, Kingsmill, PGA West Stadium. Maybe a few more.

Firestone North (I think it was the world series of golf at the time, but it was held on the North course one year due to maintenance needed on the South Course.)
Firestone South (Bridgestone Inv)
TPC Sawgrass (The Players Championship)
Pine Needles (U.S. Women's Open)

There might be some other ones I am not aware of, but these are ones off the top of my head. 

I am probably scratching off Whistling Straights and Erin Hills later this year 😁

How far back are we talking? Like I've played Inwood on Long Island and that held a US Open back in the day (nearly 100 years ago now). Courses that have held big events recently:

Shinnecock Hills

Merion

Bethpage Black

Winged Foot West

Kiawah Island Ocean

TPC Sawgrass

Walton Heath Old

Royal St Georges

Royal Liverpool

The Old Course

Turnberry

Muirfield

Kingsbarns

Royal Porthcawl

Phoenix Country Club

A few others that have held European Tour events relatively recently, and then these ones that held big events a long time ago:

Royal Cinque Ports

Prestwick

Princes

Inwood

Just the Plantation course at Kapalua. Not like I didn't know it, but it was a visceral reminder of how ridiculously good the tour pros are. That course is f***ing *hard* playing it from ~6500 yards. From the tips!? Then if there's wind?!
