Est. 1926 · Donald Ross
Why we love this place
We love that Sedgefield still plays like Donald Ross meant it to, thanks to a restoration that honored the original instead of modernizing it away. It proves shot-making and clever greens beat brute length every time. A living piece of golf history that pros and members both get to enjoy.

About Sedgefield Country Club
Sedgefield Country Club opened in 1926 as a Donald Ross design in Greensboro, North Carolina, and has endured as one of the Southeast's classic courses. It became an original home of the Greater Greensboro Open, hosting the PGA Tour event from 1938 into the 1970s. After a faithful 2007 restoration by architect Kris Spence, which reclaimed Ross's original green sizes, bunkering, and strategic angles, the course returned to the Tour as host of the Wyndham Championship beginning in 2008. Sedgefield's defense lies in subtle elevation changes, tilted fairways, and firm, cleverly contoured greens rather than sheer length, rewarding players who attack from the correct angles. It remains a showcase for classic Ross architecture and a popular late-summer stop on the professional calendar, celebrated for balancing playability with strategic bite.
