Framingham Country Club
Template:Short description Template:Use American English The Framingham Country Club is a golf course located in Framingham, Massachusetts, United States, about twenty-five minutes west of Boston, Massachusetts off the Massachusetts Turnpike. The private golf club opened in 1902.[1] As of 2006 the club had around 400 members.[2] In 2009, joining the club required a $17,000 bond and $15,000 initiation fee for new members. Each member pays annual fees of about $5,100.[3] The club is affectionately known by its members as the "Ham" and hosts a fall scratch tournament called “The Ham Invitational".[4] The clubhouse manager is Michael Aw.[5]
In 2002, a woman applied for a golfing membership at the club, but was put on a waiting list and not admitted. She later sued the club for gender discrimination. In 2006, the club paid her $262,000 settlement to end her lawsuit.[2]
In 2019, former members of the club sued Framington for improperly withholding their membership bonds.[6]
In 2020, the club hosted the Ouimet Memorial Championship[7] and in 2022, the Mass Senior Amateur.[1] In 2022, a fire at the facility caused over $500,000 in damage.[8] In 2024, the club hosted the Massachusetts Amateur Championship.[1][9][10]
