USGA continues to show Wisconsin love, announces four amateur events heading to Sand Valley

The United States Golf Association will continue its partnership with the state of Wisconsin by bringing four amateur tournaments to Sand Valley Resort in Nekoosa through 2034.

Following the 2025 U.S. Women’s Open at Erin Hills, Sand Valley will host the U.S. Mid-Amateur in 2026. That tournament will be held on the newly constructed Lido, a private course on the resort. It opened for play this year.

The resort, which includes four courses, will then host the 2029 U.S. Junior Amateur, the 2030 U.S. Women’s Mid-Amateur and the 2034 U.S. Girls’ Junior.

Through this past year, the USGA has held 17 of its golf championships in the state, most recently the 2022 U.S Mid-Amateur at Erin Hills.

Sand Valley hosted the 2022 Wisconsin State Amateur.

The resort occupies 12,000 acres in central Wisconsin and is owned and operated by Michael and Chris Keiser.

“We have looked forward to this day for a long time,” Chris Keiser said in a statement released by the USGA. “Amateur golf is the heart of the game. To have the opportunity to host these elite men and women over the next 10 years is a great honor, and we are thrilled to become part of the history of these great championships.”
