Winning moment in 2007.
Merion Golf Club is privileged to host the 42nd Walker Cup Match on September 12th and 13th, 2009.  The Walker Cup pits the finest amateur golfers from Great Britain and Ireland against those from the United States.  While Merion has hosted many other USGA events, this is the first time that we will host the Walker Cup.  We’re quite proud that Buddy Marucci, a Merion member, will captain the United States team, as he did for the 2007 U.S. victory at Royal County Down.

The Walker Cup features spirited, intense competition between the two teams in an atmosphere that captures the utmost in sportsmanship. Merion and the USGA are eager to welcome a knowledgeable gallery, and Merion will be able to accommodate up to 10,000 spectators each day.

We hope that you will enjoy this website and that you will want to attend and support this marvelous amateur golf competition.  Ticket information is available by clicking on the "Tickets" heading above.  Merion looks forward to welcoming the finest amateur golfers in Great Britain and Ireland and those from the United States for this exciting match. 

Sincerely,

 

Rick Ill, President
Merion Golf Club
