The location Quaker Ridge Golf Club is a premier club in Scarsdale, NY and is one of America’s greatest golf courses. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places by the U.S. Department of the Interior and has a long history of hosting significant events, including the 1936 Met Open won by Bryon Nelson. It has also hosted the Metropolitan Golf Association's (MGA) other two major championships – the Met Amateur and the Ike – and annually hosts its Hochster Memorial. On the national stage, it stands as one of just three U.S. venues to have hosted both the Walker Cup (1997) and Curtis Cup (2018). Quaker Ridge Golf Club recently completed a club-wide renovation of its clubhouse and pro shop, adding a fitness center, golf simulation and an expanded dining room and patio. We are thrilled to be partnering with Quaker Ridge again on this year's event.
