To honor the legacy of Bill Wright, Fir State Golf Club is offering free club membership! For now thru March, join FSGC and become a part of a phenomenal golf experience.
Bill Wright was the first African American to win a United States Golf Association (USGA) event, winning the 1959 U.S. Amateur Public Links Championship. Bill was a graduate of Franklin High School and went on to play college golf at Western Washington University, winning the 1960 National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics Men’s Golf Championship individual title.
Mr. Wright was inducted into the Pacific Northwest Golf Association Hall of Fame in 2013. He was an original junior member and fixture of Fir State Golf Club and Jefferson Golf Course. He broke the color barrier of American Golf and was appropriately honored by the renaming of his home course to: Bill Wright Golf Complex.
