Dates: August 7-13
2022 Champion: Saki Baba
Located in the heart of Los Angeles, Bel-Air is a private club with an 18-hole course originally designed by George Thomas and recently renovated by Tom Doak and Renaissance Golf Design. The project focused on updating the course while restoring its archetypal integrity. The course previously hosted the 1976 U.S. Amateur, which was won by Bill Sander, and the 2004 U.S. Senior Amateur, where Mark Bemowski took home the trophy. It most recently served as the stroke-play co-host course for the 2018 U.S. Amateur at The Riviera Country Club. The club will also host the 2026 Curtis Cup Match and 2030 U.S. Mid-Amateur Championship.
Last year, Saki Baba of Japan romped to an 11 and 9 victory over Monet Chun at Chambers Bay in University Place, Wash.
