The USGA posted the list below today...subject to change and obviously incomplete...definitely worth checking out if it's in your neighborhood.
SITE CITY STATE DATE Forsgate Country Club (Banks Course) Monroe Township NJ 4/23/19 OGA Golf Course Woodburn OR 4/25/19 Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club Rancho Santa Fe CA 4/29/19 Country Club of Ocala Ocala FL 4/29/19 Starmount Forest Country Club Greensboro NC 4/29/19 Springfield Golf & Country Club Springfield VA 4/30/19 Pinnacle Peak Country Club Scottsdale AZ 5/6/19 Walnut Creek Golf Preserve Westminster CO 5/6/19 Bradenton Country Club Bradenton FL 5/6/19 The Wanderers Club Wellington FL 5/6/19 Druid Hills Golf Club Atlanta GA 5/6/19 Elgin Country Club Elgin IL 5/6/19 TPC Boston Norton MA 5/6/19 Chartiers Country Club Pittsburgh PA 5/6/19 Rush Creek Golf Club Maple Grove MN 5/7/19
Woo-hoo, I'm just 10 miles from Forsgate and I am well-acquainted with the Banks course...has numerous elevated greens flanked by steep and deep bunkers. The LPGA played the Coca-Cola Classic here in the late '70s.
Quite a surprise to see TPC Boston here...I don't remember a USWO qualifier ever being held at a regular PGA Tour stop before.

TPC Boston, which is actually in Norton (geesh, at least the Patriots had the good sense to stop calling themselves Boston when they moved out to the Foxborough/Norton area), is home to the headquarters of the Massachusetts Golf Association. Such a pity that my neighborhood sectional will again likely be devoid of Tour players as it comes the day after the Mediheal.Kevin

Forsgate looks wild. You could park a bus in his road hole bunker out there. It would probably sneak into a world top 50 of courses I’d like to see, just to have one Banks on the list.

I'll be patiently waiting for USGA to announce USWO's purse has been raised to US$6.0 million.
LPGA will have a great chance if USGA continues to drive it.

Poor Yealimi Noh; she needs to forfeit her exemption as the Champion of 2018 US Junior Girl and re-qualify as a pro; same is true for Kristen Gillman, the 2018 US Women's Amateur Champion.

The added one more (BOLDED) and I'm sure there are more to come. Based upon the LPGA schedule, I'm, guessing the one in Rancho Santa Fe, CA on 4/29 will get many "name" players.

They are up to 25 sites, which has been the max number in past years. I think they've covered all the usual regions, so this might be the final list.
