“ Top ten most influential women in the game of golf ”


-Sports Illustrated Plus

Jan Bel Jan comes from Pittsburgh, PA golf family. Her father, George BelJan, was a golf pro/superintendent; three of his five “in the golf business” brothers were peer-respected PGA professionals. From them, she learned the game and business of golf.  Jan began her design career with Tom Fazio with whom she held a senior position in golf course design, construction and project management for more than twenty years.  Her experience as a registered Landscape Architect, Certified Arborist and former assistant superintendent provide her with a unique outlook on the playability, strategy, ecology, economics and aesthetics of golf courses.

Jan formed her golf course design firm in 2009.  She is a long-time contributor to the multiple disciplines of golf.  Ms. Bel Jan has presented customized programs to PGA of America, CMAA and GCSAA members.  Topics include “Setting Up Golf Courses for Success”, how to retain and engage more women in golf, inclusion of people with disabilities in golf and environmental sustainability.  

Courses renovated by Ms. Bel Jan in 2016 and 2014 earned the American Society of Golf Course Architects' "Design Excellence Award".  LINKS Magazine named Jan as one of “The Top 10 Female Golf Course Architects” in March 2015.  In January 2014, she was presented with the Women In the Golf Industry’s "President’s Award".   Sports Illustrated Plus listed Jan among the “Top Ten Most Influential Women in the Game of Golf" in December 2000 and February 2005.  Jan was a founding partner in the National Women’s Golf Alliance.
