Donald Ross Design • Nashville, Tennessee
Belle Meade Country Club stands as Nashville's most historic and prestigious golf destination, representing over 120 years of tradition and excellence. Founded in 1901 as Nashville Golf and Country Club, the club relocated to its current Belle Meade location in 1916 and was renamed in 1921.
The course showcases the timeless genius of Donald Ross, who completed Herbert H. Barker's original design between 1917-1921. Ross's naturalistic approach created a challenging yet fair layout that has hosted the inaugural U.S. Senior Amateur Championship in 1955 and will host both the U.S. Senior Women's Amateur (2028) and U.S. Senior Amateur (2036).
Located in Belle Meade, where per capita income ranks among the highest in the nation, the club embodies Southern hospitality and golf tradition while maintaining its commitment to preserving Donald Ross's architectural legacy through careful renovations by Robert Trent Jones Sr., Gary Roger Baird, and Rees Jones.
