Hazeltine National Launches Vision 2040 with New 10-Hole Course, Ryder Cup Returns in 2029
November 21, 2024Hazeltine National Golf Club in Chaska, Minnesota, has unveiled an ambitious long-term development initiative called Vision 2040.
The first phase of this initiative will feature the construction of a new 10-hole, par-3 short course and a putting course, designed by Love Golf Design, which is led by Davis Love III.
Groundbreaking for the short course has recently taken place, with an expected opening set for summer 2025.
Davis Love III expressed his enthusiasm for the project, noting that it marks an exciting time for Hazeltine and he looks forward to playing on the new courses.
The main course at Hazeltine, originally designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr. in 1962, underwent renovations by his son Rees Jones in 1991.
Hazeltine National's existing 18-hole course is highly esteemed, ranked as the No. 4 private course in Minnesota and No. 77 among modern courses in the U.S.
The club boasts a rich history of hosting prestigious golf tournaments, including two U.S. Opens, two PGA Championships, two U.S. Women’s Opens, and the 2019 KPMG Women’s PGA Championship.
Looking ahead, the KPMG Women’s Championship is scheduled to return to Hazeltine in 2026, and the club will host the Ryder Cup again in 2029, following its successful hosting in 2016.
