About this course
Erin Hills sits on glacial terrain in Erin, Wisconsin, about 35 miles northwest of Milwaukee. Michael Hurdzan, Dana Fry and Ron Whitten designed it, and it opened in 2006 on land shaped by retreating ice into kettles, ridges and hollows, with very little earth moved to build the holes.
There are no trees in play and no housing on the property, so wind is the main defense along with constant elevation change. Fairways are wide, the fescue rough is punishing, and several greens sit in natural bowls or on exposed shelves. The course is walking only, and caddies are available.
Erin Hills hosted the 2011 U.S. Amateur, the 2017 U.S. Open won by Brooks Koepka at 16 under par, and the 2025 U.S. Women's Open. It is a daily fee course with on site lodging, and the USGA has scheduled further championships there, including the 2027 U.S. Amateur Four-Ball and the 2035 U.S. Amateur.
