It has also played host to three PGA Championships, five U.S. Amateurs, and the U.S. Women's Open once, and will host it again in 2010. This course, the only course designed by Henry Fownes (pronounced as "Phones"), was opened in 1903 and is generally regarded in the golf community as one of the most difficult in the United States. Its USGA course rating of 77.5 is among the highest in the country. It features large, extremely fast, and smooth greens that tilt and undulate in unique ways.
