Bellerive Country Club Awarded 2030 Presidents Cup

PGA TOUR Release

Ladue, MO – The PGA TOUR announced on Wednesday that Bellerive Country Club will host the Presidents Cup in 2030. The biennial global team competition started in 1994, and Bellerive will be the seventh different venue in the United States to host the prestigious event.

Bellerive is no stranger to being on the game’s biggest stage. The “Green Monster of Ladue” hosted the 1965 U.S. Open won by Gary Player. Since then, it has hosted a U.S. Mid-Amateur (1981), two PGA Championships (1992, 2018), the 2004 U.S. Senior Open, the 2008 BMW Championship, and the 2013 Senior PGA Championship.

The club made headlines during the 2018 PGA Championship that was won by Brooks Koepka because of the turnout and the player’s overall experience with the fans.

“St. Louis is a passionate and iconic sports town and one which embraces teams and events such as the Presidents Cup with tremendous enthusiasm. The combination of St. Louis and Bellerive Country Club will make for a memorable experience for fans onsite and those watching around the world,” PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan said.

Bellerive has hosted the Metropolitan Amateur Championship twice (1996, 2009) and played host to the inaugural Robert A. Shogren Cup this past June.

“Bellerive is thrilled to host the 2030 Presidents Cup and once again showcase the best golfers in the world in St. Louis,” said Bellerive Country Club President Rick Walsh. “It will be an incredible event for the community, fans and players, and a great celebration of St. Louis.”

The Presidents Cup was last played in 2019 at Royal Melbourne, where the U.S. Team made a thrilling comeback to beat the International Team on the final day in Australia. Future sites that have been determined include next year when the event goes to Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte. The 2024 edition will head north of the border to The Royal Montreal Club in Quebec, Canada, before returning to the Midwest in 2026 at Medinah Country Club outside of Chicago.

It will be a long waiting game until 2030, but St. Louis and Bellerive Country Club will be ready when the time comes.
