Did you know?

Donald Ross designed and constructed several golf courses in southern New England. His layouts in the state of Rhode Island include Wannamoisett, Warwick, Metacomet, Rhode Island CC and Triggs Memorial.

Of these Ross-designed courses, Triggs is the only public-access course. Originally, the course was built on the 140-acre Obadiah Brown Farm. An elementary school, high school and Rhode Island College stand on it's borders today.

Who's Who

Lottie Woad: 21-year-old Woad burst onto the professional scene in July, with wins in the Women’s Irish Open (as an amateur) and three weeks later in the Women’s Scottish Open (as a professional). She nearly picked-up a major championship, placing third in The Evian in the same month.

Pádraig Harrington: the ever-likeable Irishman added the (British) Senior Open Championship title to his stellar array of tournament successes. His win came on Sunningdale’s spectacular Old Course. Harrington had already bagged the U.S. Senior Open title in June this year.
