Chambers Bay to Host 2028 U.S. Amateur Four-Ball Championship

Chambers Bay in University Place, Washington, has been selected by the USGA as the host site for the 2028 U.S. Amateur Four-Ball Championship from May 20–24.

The club has previously hosted four USGA championships — the 2010 U.S. Amateur, the 2015 U.S. Open won by Jordan Spieth, the 2021 U.S. Amateur Four and the 2022 U.S. Women’s Amateur. Chambers Bay will also host the 2027 U.S. Junior Amateur and the 2033 U.S. Amateur.

“There have been several memorable moments for us already in Chambers Bay’s short history, and the property remains a favorite for players and fans alike,” said Mark Hill, USGA managing director, championships. “We’re grateful for our continued partnership with Pierce County and look forward to bringing the Four-Ball back to such a special property.”

The U.S. Amateur Four-Ball Championship is open to teams of amateurs, with each player’s Handicap Index not exceeding 5.4. There are no age restrictions and partners are not required to be from the same club, state or country. The USGA accepted 2,638 entries (5,276 players) for the 2024 championship, the most since the championship began in 2015.

The 2028 U.S. Amateur Four-Ball will be the 31st USGA championship held in the state of Washington. It most recently hosted the 2023 U.S. Women’s Amateur Four-Ball at The Home Course in Dupont, which will also serve as the stroke play co-host during the Four-Ball in 2028 and will host the 2024 U.S. Senior Women’s Amateur at Broadmoor Golf Club in Seattle later this summer.

“We are delighted to once again welcome the USGA back to Chambers Bay and Pierce County,” said Bruce Dammeier, Pierce County executive. “Our championship venue sits in a breath-taking setting that has earned a devoted following of golfers from around the world. We look forward to watching the best amateurs take it on.”

It is the seventh USGA championship overall awarded to the public golf course, owned by Pierce County and managed by KemperSports, in its 17-year history.

This year’s championship was held at the Philadelphia Cricket Club in Flourtown, Pennsylvania, from May 25–29. The 2025 championship will take place next May at Plainfield Country Club in Edison, New Jersey.
