Trump National Old course at Bedminster was designed by Tom Fazio and it opened for play as a private members' track in 2004. A second course was then designed and built four years later by the architect's nephew, Tom Fazio II, and this newer 18-hole layout (called the New course) complements the Old course, driving range, short game practice facility and restored 1930s Georgian manor clubhouse.
The USGA selected the Trump National Old course to host the 2009 U.S. Junior and U.S. Girls Junior Amateur Championships then it was chosen as the venue for both the 2017 U.S. Women's Open and the 2022 PGA Championship.
However, in January 2021 – following the storming of the halls of Congress by Trump’s supporters – the PGA of America voted to strip Trump National of the 2022 PGA Championship as its organizers felt using the Bedminster Old course as host would be “detrimental”.
As you would expect from a Trump course, the conditioning is exceptional, from pristine tees to wide, tree-lined fairways and large, white sand bunkers. Water comes into play at almost half the holes on the course, with the 438-yard 6th featuring an island-type green which is said to be the largest in “Fazio Golf Design” history at 14,000 feet -- large enough to accommodate four normal sized putting surfaces.
Some think the Trump National Old course is world-class; others find it boring and pretentious. We’d love to know what you think. Why not post a review if you've played this layout and let the world know what you think?
