A month after a devastating fire burned down the famed clubhouse at Oakland Hills Country Club, the United States Golf Association had some good news about a long-term strategic partnership with the club in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan.
The USGA announced on Tuesday that Oakland Hills would host eight of its championships over the next 29 years, including four major championships announced in January: the U.S. Women’s Open in 2031 and 2042 and the U.S. Open in 2034 and 2051. The additional events: 2024 U.S. Junior Amateur, 2029 U.S. Women’s Amateur, 2038 U.S. Girls Junior Amateur and the 2047: U.S. Amateur.
“This is a significant and meaningful day for all of us at Oakland Hills,” said Rick Palmer, club president. “The commitment of two U.S. Opens as well as four top amateur championships is a testament to the fabulous work of everyone at Oakland Hills. With a total of eight USGA championships coming to our club starting in 2024, we can’t wait to add to our storied history. We look forward to continuing our championship golf tradition at Oakland Hills and our long-standing relationship with the USGA.”
