USGA awards Saucon Valley five future tournaments
Saucon Valley Country Club, in Bethlehem, Pa., will host five future USGA championships. Most recently, in 2022, Saucon Valley hosted its eighth USGA championship.
Saucon Valley CC’s Old Course, a Herbert Strong design, opened in 1922 and has hosted three U.S. Senior Opens — the most of any site. Since 1922 the course has also undergone several renovations by, William Gordon, Perry Maxwell and, most recently, Tom Marzolf from Fazio Design. The club is also a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary.
