Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Ky., was named Tuesday as the host course for the 21st Solheim Cup in 2028.

Valhalla will join The Greenbrier, Muirfield Village and Gleneagles as the only courses to host both a Solheim Cup — which pits top American players from the LPGA Tour against European pros in a biennial competition — and a Ryder Cup.

The 2024 PGA Championship and other major men’s tournaments have been played at Valhalla, but this will be the first major women’s competition there. The Ryder Cup was contested at Valhalla in 2008.

Dates have yet to be finalized for the 2028 event.

“We are thrilled to be selected to host the 2028 Solheim Cup. Valhalla has a history of providing compelling finishes and we are excited to add this event to our championship lore,” club owner Jimmy Kirchdorfer said. “We look forward to welcoming golf fans from around the globe back to our Kentucky home for what promises to be an unforgettable week of competition and camaraderie.”

With the Solheim Cup, Kentucky will host its first women’s golf event since 1974.

The 2024 Solheim Cup will be played at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Gainesville, Va., on Sept. 13-15, with Stacy Lewis as captain for the U.S. Team and Suzann Pettersen in charge of the European team.

In 2026, the event will be held at Bernardus Golf in Cromvoirt, Netherlands.

The U.S. holds a 10-7-1 all-time lead in Solheim Cup competition.
