St. Clair Country Club in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, has been selected by the USGA to host the 2033 U.S. Senior Women's Amateur Championship, marking the club's second USGA championship and first since 1985.

The United States Golf Association (USGA) today announced that St. Clair Country Club in Pittsburgh, Pa., has been awarded the 2033 U.S. Senior Women’s Amateur Championship. It will be the second USGA championship held at the club and the first since 1985.

 

“The USGA is excited to return to St. Clair Country Club for the first time in nearly 50 years,” said Mark Hill, USGA managing director of championships. “St. Clair has shown their commitment to women’s amateur golf, and we are confident in the club’s ability to deliver a world-class championship experience for the game’s best senior amateurs.”

 

St. Clair Country Club was founded in 1916. Tom Bendelow designed the initial nine holes, before William and David Gordon laid out the 18-hole championship routing in 1954. The championship course would see renovations led by Ferdinand Garbin, Dick Wilson and Joe Lee in the 1960s, before Keith Foster led the modern restoration in 2007.

 

“St. Clair Country Club is honored to once again welcome a USGA championship to our storied club,” said St. Clair Country Club President Wayne Gasior. “The club and its members are excited to continue to build on our long-standing relationship with the USGA and we look forward to providing an outstanding experience for the competitors and their families.”

 

St. Clair last hosted a USGA championship in 1985, when Dana Lofland – who had competed on the 1984 USA Curtis Cup Team – earned medalist honors before defeating Amy Fruhwirth, 4 and 3, in the championship final of the U.S. Girls’ Junior.

 

The 2033 U.S. Senior Women’s Amateur will be the seventh Senior Women’s Amateur held in the state of Pennsylvania. Champions who have won the Senior Women’s Amateur in Pennsylvania include seven-time USGA champion Ellen Port, Pennsylvania-native Carol Semple Thompson and Carolyne Cudone. 

 

Pennsylvania has hosted 97 USGA championships overall, the most of any state. The Keystone State hosted two USGA championships during the 2026 season, including the 126th U.S. Amateur at historic Merion Golf Club, where England’s Jack Whaley defeated Jay Leng Jr., 4 and 3, in the final round, and the 78th U.S. Junior Amateur, where Noah Maclauchlan ousted top-ranked Miles Russell, 6 and 5, in the 36-hole final.

 

The U.S. Senior Women’s Amateur is open to any female golfer who is 50 or older and whose Handicap Index® does not exceed 14.4. The winner of the U.S. Senior Women’s Amateur earns a spot into the following two U.S. Senior Women’s Opens.
