This is Frog Golf

ON THE COURSE TCU women’s golf has as many top courses to regularly play as any program in the nation. The Frogs utilize several local country clubs as their home course. Foremost among that group and walking distance from campus is Colonial Country Club, site of the PGA’s annual Crowne Plaza Invitational. Fort Worth is renown for its number of award-winning golf courses and great weather which invites year-round play. Former TCU golfer and current LPGA star Angela Stanford said, “The TCU golf programs are extremely fortunate to have access to all of the elite golf courses in Fort Worth. Each and every golf course has something different to offer and allows preparation for any type of tournament course.”

COLONIAL COUNTRY CLUB Founded in 1936 by Marvin Leonard, Colonial Country Club is one of the nation’s more famous and prestigious golf courses. It serves as host each year of the Crowne Plaza Invitational, the longest-running PGA Tour event to be held at the same site. The course hosted the 1941 U.S. Open, the 1975 Tournament Players Championship and 1991 U.S. Women’s Open.
