Broadmoor Golf Club
The Broadmoor Golf Club is a golf resort in the western United States, located in Colorado Springs, Colorado, consisting of two 18-hole courses, the East and the West. Designed by Donald Ross, the original course opened in 1918 and has hosted several USGA championships since 1959, most recently the U.S. Senior Open in 2018, won by David Toms.
The East Course previously hosted the U.S. Women's Open in 1995, the first of the ten majors won by Annika Sörenstam. The U.S. Senior Open is scheduled for early summer in 2018.
The current course format opened in 1965, featuring new routing and 18 additional holes designed by Robert Trent Jones. The West Course includes the front 9 holes from the original Ross course. The East Course includes the original back 9 Donald Ross holes. The Mountain Course opened in 1976 and was designed by Arnold Palmer and Ed Seay. It was renovated by Jack Nicklaus' company in 2006 and closed in 2016 due to a landslide. Nicklaus won his first major tournament, the 1959 U.S. Amateur, at the East Course at the age of 19.
The resort's landmark hotel sits at an elevation of above sea level, with the golf courses climbing slightly
