The Broadmoor's East Course is known for its wide, tree-lined fairways and expansive greens. With its challenging terrain and amazing mountain vistas, The East Course is ranked among the best golf courses in the country. Since the large trees can alter your shots and the putting greens difficult to read, the best tip we can offer for those taking on this open course is to remember that putts break away from the mountains.

Course History
Spencer Penrose contacted legendary golf course architect Donald Ross in 1916 to design an 18-hole golf course for the magnificent property he was dreaming up. When completed in 1918, The Broadmoor's East Course was the highest golf course in the United States at 6,400 feet in elevation and Ross declared it his 'best work'. The East Course is now a combination of the original Donald Ross design mixed with holes designed by Robert Trent Jones, Sr. in 1952.
- Holes 1-6 - Donald Ross
- Holes 7-15 - Robert Trent Jones, Sr.
- Holes 16-18 - Donald Ross
The East Course has been home to many major tournaments, including the 1959 U.S. Amateur (which was Jack Nicklaus' first major win), the 1964 U.S. Amateur, and the 1995 U.S. Women's Open, which was Annika Sorenstam's first major title. Most recently, the famous course served as the host to the 2008 U.S. Senior Open and the 2011 U. S. Women's Open Championship.
