Palouse Ridge Golf Club is an 18-hole championship golf course in the northwest United States, located at Washington State University in Pullman, Washington. On the east edge of campus on the Palouse of the Inland Northwest, it opened for play nine years ago in 2008 and is the home venue of the Cougar golf teams of the Pac-12 Conference. Designed by John Harbottle III , its back tees are at 7,308 yards ; the course rating is 75.4 with a slope rating of 140. The average elevation is approximately 2,600 feet above sea level and it lies between Martin Stadium and the Pullman–Moscow Regional Airport. Palouse Ridge replaced a sub-standard 9-hole WSU Golf Course that opened in 1925, and was mostly an unimproved recreational track. It had dual tees, but measured under 5,800 yards for par 72, with a course rating of 65.4 and a slope of 110. The holes originally extended west to Stadium Way, now a parking lot, and later began on the east side of Bailey–Brayton Field, in the area now occupied by tennis courts. Long targeted for an upgrade, it closed in 2006 and was plowed under for the $12.3 million redesign project, constructed on part of the same site and adjacent land. The new 18-hole venue opened on August 29, 2008, and intends to improve the school's golf teams, provide a laboratory for students in turf grass courses, and give boosters and alumni an additional reason to visit the campus. The course hosted NCAA golf with Pac-12 women's championship in 2012, the NCAA men's west regional in 2013, and the Pac-12 men's championship in 2015.Palouse Ridge is an upgraded complement to the area's mainstay University of Idaho Golf Course, eight miles east in Moscow, which opened in 1937 and added its second nine in 1970. The city of Pullman had attempted to construct an 18-hole golf course in the early 1990s at the northwest part of the city, near the high school. After some local opposition, it was put before voters in November 1994, and failed.
