Golf’s U.S. Amateur will return to Olympic Club in San Francisco
San Francisco’s Olympic Club landed another national championship Thursday.
The USGA announced future sites for the U.S. Amateur, including the Olympic Club in 2025. This will be the fourth time Olympic has hosted the Amateur, and the first time since 2007.
Thursday’s news is especially notable in light of the Olympic Club’s agreement in November 2017 to hold the PGA Championship (in 2028) and Ryder Cup (in 2032). The PGA of America runs those events, competing with the USGA for prestigious venues on which to hold their marquee tournaments.
Olympic, which has hosted five U.S. Open — most recently in 2012, when Webb Simpson won — essentially switched sides after negotiations for a sixth Open broke down.
