Pedigreed for a Championship


Reasons to Attend +


This is your chance to see a national championship that isn’t played very


often in California. In fact, only two previous U.S. Women’s Opens have been played in the state, in 1964 at San Diego Country Club in Chula Vista and in 1982 at Del Paso Country Club in Sacramento.


+ +


It won’t return again until 2021 when the host venue will be The


Olympic Club in San Francisco. Why wait another five years?


You won’t see corporate hospitality tents on the golf course. Existing


buildings like the clubhouse, golf shop and resort villas/bungalows are being used for hospitality centers, so the course will retain a very natural look.


+


How about 9 and wine? Clos LaChance Winery is adjacent to the


course, and there are numerous other wineries in the area. Go wine tasting and then watch some golf.

she’s just great all around.”


By Ray Otis, PGA Head Golf Professional, CordeValle

Brooke Henderson (Canada)


“Even though she is just 18 years old, I think she will have a chance. She seems to play pretty well on tough courses.”


Inbee Park


(South Korea) “I would expect the two-time U.S. Women’s Open champion (2008 and 2013) to be in the mix of contenders.”


Stacy Lewis (U.S.)


“She is going to win at some point again and when she does I think she will win a lot.”


Michelle Wie (U.S.)


“The 2014 U.S. Women’s Open champion was out here during her


Stanford days so she’s moderately familiar with the course.”
