#NWAChampionship Information

about the #NWAChampionship

The Walmart NW Arkansas Championship presented by P&G is a prominent event on the LPGA Tour, held annually at Pinnacle Country Club in Rogers, Arkansas. Since its inception in 2007, the tournament has become a staple in women's professional golf, attracting top talent from around the world.

The tournament debuted in 2007 at Pinnacle Country Club, a private 18-hole course established in 1988 and redesigned in 2008 by Randy Heckenkemper. The inaugural event was shortened to 18 holes due to inclement weather, with amateur and University of Arkansas standout Stacy Lewis declared the winner after shooting a 65.

Beyond the competition, the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship has become a week-long celebration, featuring events like the 5k @ the LPGA benefitting Mercy Health Foundation, yoga classes, junior golf initiatives, and more. The tournament has seen significant growth, with the 2024 purse reaching $3 million, one of the largest on the LPGA Tour outside of the majors.

The 2025 edition is scheduled for September 13–21, continuing its tradition of showcasing elite women's golf in Northwest Arkansas.

Pinnacle country Club History

Pinnacle Country Club began as farm land in the serene rolling hills of Rogers, Arkansas. In 1988, with the goal of creating a superlative private golf course and gated community, a group of visionaries led by Berky Resources Corporation, developers and local golf enthusiasts transformed the pristine, fertile land into what was originally known as Champions Golf & Country Club. The course opened for play in 1990, and true to their vision, the club rose to prominence as one of the most desirable private clubs in the region. Pinnacle Country Club has played host to the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship presented by P&G since 2007.

Along the way, Pinnacle Country Club has distinguished itself as a world-class venue for championship golf. Among the numerous high-profile events that have been staged on its perfectly sculpted links are the Greg Norman Challenge and the Phillips Classic. The course also serves as the annual host of the LPGA's prestigious NW Arkansas Championship, featuring competition by some of the best female players in professional golf.

Management

Pinnacle Country Club is owned and operated by the Hudson family led by Mike Hudson, son of the late James T. "Red" Hudson - founder of Hudson Foods and Pinnacle Country Club who passed away in August 2006.

Course Architect

Originally designed by the late Don Sechrest, with PGA TOUR great Bruce Lietzke serving as a consultant. Re-designed by Randy Heckenkemper in 2009.
