Portland Golf Club
Portland, Ore. September 26-October 1, 2026
Portland Golf Club, established in 1914, is regarded as one of the most prestigious and challenging clubs in the Pacific Northwest. The club's location was chosen due to its proximity to the Spokane, Portland and Seattle railroad lines, and its course was designed by the club’s founding members. In 1946, Ben Hogan won the first of his nine major championships at Portland when it hosted the PGA Championship. In 1947, following a decade-long hiatus, the USA Team won the 7th Ryder Cup over Great Britain and Ireland led by playing captain Hogan, Byron Nelson and Jimmy Demaret. In 1964, Portland underwent a significant redesign by Robert Trent Jones Sr., who is attributed as the course designer. Through decades of championship tradition, Portland’s tree-lined fairways and challenging green complexes have defined the club’s character. Miller Barber won the 1982 U.S. Senior Open at Portland Golf Club, Bill Ploeger won the 1999 U.S. Senior Amateur, and Hannah O’Sullivan won the 2015 U.S. Women’s Amateur at the historic venue. Among the legendary champions who have competed at Portland are Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer and Bob Jones.
