Niagara Falls Country Club

The Purple Eagles are truly at home at the Niagara Falls Country Club, a golf course that has a reputation as high as the Purple Eagles can soar.

The course is a par 70 - 6,621 yard championship course, which features 90 tricky sandtraps. The course was originally designed by A.W. Tillinghast in 1919 and was updated by Robert Trent Jones, Geoffrey S. Cornish and Brian M. Silva.

The Niagara Falls Country Club course is home to the second ranked amateur tournament in the United States, the Porter Cup.

In the past, the Porter Cup has brought in a who’s who of current golfers, including Scott Verplank (1985), Phil Mickleson (1990), David Duval (1992) and Tiger Woods (1994).

Porter Cup alumni have gone on to make a mark on the national and international scene, winning 14 U.S. Opens, 13 PGA Championships, 11 Masters and nine British Opens.
