CordeValle, A Rosewood Resort is a private golf course and spa resort in Santa Clara County, California, operated by Rosewood Hotels & Resorts. It is located in the Santa Clara Valley, near the eastern edge of the Santa Cruz Mountains
The Club's 1996 permit required that 60% of the golf rounds played be reserved for the general public, but the Club defines "general public" as including guests of members. In the resulting dispute with the Santa Clara County Planning Commission, the Club agreed to create a Youth Golf Foundation, to pay for underprivileged youths to learn the game of golf at CordeValle or elsewhere. In exchange, the Planning Commission agreed to waive the requirement for 60% public play.[3]
Nancy Pelosi owns approximately $1,000,000 worth of the Club.[4]
From 2010 to 2013, CordeValle was the home of the Frys.com Open, and in 2013 the tournament was the first event of the wraparound 2013–14 PGA Tour season. The tournament was previously conducted at Greyhawk Golf Club in Scottsdale, Arizona, and beginning in 2014 will be conducted at Silverado Country Club in Napa, California.[5]
The 2015 PGA Cup and the 2016 U.S. Women's Open will be played at CordeValle.[6][7]
