Bethpage State Park's schedule of high-level professional golf tournaments continues to grow after an announcement last week that the Black Course will be part of The Barclays rotation far into the next decade.
New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo announced Tuesday that the Black Course will host The Barclays in 2021 and 2027, bringing the total number of major and high-caliber pro tournaments on the Bethpage slate to five. The Black Course is already scheduled to host The Barclays in 2016, as well as the 2019 PGA Championship and the 2024 Ryder Cup.
’93Bethpage State Park is one of the best public golf courses in the nation, and we are proud to welcome The Barclays back for two more tournaments," Governor Cuomo said. "We look forward to welcoming golfers and spectators to these world-class competitions and urge them to also experience all that Long Island has to offer."
The Barclays — played in August as the first event of the FedExCup playoffs — last came to Bethpage in 2012. Nick Watney won the event.
