Bulle Rock Golf Course is a golf course located in Havre de Grace, Maryland. It is named for "Bulle Rock", the first thoroughbred racehorse brought to America.[2] Bulle Rock hosted the LPGA Championship, a women's major, from 2005 through 2009.[3]

It was designed by noted course architect Pete Dye[4] and opened 18 years ago in 1998.[3] In 2002, Manekin, LLC, Clark Turner, and H&S Properties Development Corporation purchased the golf course and surrounding land and properties from original owner, Ed Abel.
