Baltimore Country Club history
Two fires, in October 1930 and January 1931, devastated the Roland Park clubhouse. Its replacement opened in April 1932 with duckpin bowling lanes. The Club retained this urban home after Roland Park’s golf course closed in 1962.1

- USGA Women's Open Champions and Championship Results The official champions table records the 1988 winner and site. Recorded site text follows that table; no canonical Club or Course identity is inferred. Explicit date span: www.usga.org
- Official Club history and USGA host and result records Official host register identifies Baltimore C.C. and 1988. Detailed results specify Five Farms East. Loyola's official directions identify Baltimore Country Club at Five Farms in Timonium, matching the canonical Club and Course; the USGA host register uses Lutherville. www.usga.org Dated results explicitly identify Five Farms, East Course: www.usga.org
- 2026 PGA Championship Media Guide The official Media Guide directly enumerates the 11th playing, champion, site, and its year-page date span. The recorded venue and champion preserve the official PGA Championship History entry’s published text. The champion-only winner field is intentionally separate from the official match-play result: 6&5 over Al Espinosa.
- PGA Championship host record The 1928 PGA record names Five Farms. The dated PGA account identifies Baltimore East. The current Course row is Five Farms East, distinct from Roland Park, the 1899 U.S. Open site. Host and competition dates: www.pgachampionship.com
- 2026 USGA Championships Media Guide - U.S. Open The official 2026 USGA Championship Record Book directly enumerates the completed 1899 Championship, champion, explicit date span, and site in Championship Results: 1895 to 2025. The recorded champion and site preserve the higher-resolution register text. The current official U.S. Open Champions table independently confirms the year, champion, and site.
- USGA championship host record Official Club or regional association evidence corroborates the historical host identity for Baltimore Country Club; the dated USGA venue wording and canonical locality are retained separately. The 1899 venue was Roland Park. The stored Courses are Five Farms East and West; neither is equated with Roland Park. Host and competition dates: www.usga.org
