Pine Needles Lodge and Golf Club

The Pine Needles Lodge and Golf Club is a country club in Southern Pines, North Carolina. The club's golf course was designed by Donald Ross.[1]

The club hosted the U.S. Women's Open in 1996, 2001, and 2007, yet staged the last Titleholders Championship in 1972.[2] Those tournaments were won by Annika Sörenstam, Karrie Webb, Cristie Kerr, and Sandra Palmer respectively.

Pine Needles will host two future Women's championships: the 2019 U.S. Senior Women's Open and the 2022 U.S. Women's Open.[3]
