Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky, is set to host the Solheim Cup in 2028. The announcement by the LPGA Tour on Tuesday brings the prestigious women’s team competition to a venue that has previously hosted the Ryder Cup and four PGA Championships, including one earlier this year.

The decision to award Valhalla with the Solheim Cup is seen as a vote of confidence for the course, which faced uncertainty following an incident involving top-ranked golfer Scottie Scheffler. Before the second round of the PGA Championship in May, Scheffler was arrested outside the entrance for not following an officer’s commands during a pedestrian fatality investigation. Despite the incident, Scheffler managed to compete in the tournament, finishing in a tie for eighth place.

Designed by golf legend Jack Nicklaus, Valhalla Golf Club opened its doors in 1986. Over the years, it has seen champions like Mark Brooks, Tiger Woods, and Rory McIlroy claim victory in major tournaments. The United States team also secured a win against Europe in the 2008 Ryder Cup held at Valhalla.

The Solheim Cup, a biennial women’s golf event mirroring the format of the Ryder Cup, began in 1990. Europe currently holds the Cup after defending their title in Spain last year. The upcoming 2028 edition at Valhalla follows the 2026 competition scheduled to take place at Bernardus in the Netherlands.

Valhalla’s selection as the Solheim Cup venue adds to its esteemed history and solidifies its place among golf’s most iconic locations, alongside The Greenbrier, Muirfield Village, and Gleneagles as courses to have hosted both the Ryder Cup and Solheim Cup.
