Together with The R&A, the USGA produces and interprets the rules of golf . The USGA also provides a national handicap system for golfers, conducts 14 national championships, including the U.S. Open, U.S. Women's Open and U.S. Senior Open, and tests golf equipment for conformity with regulations . The USGA is headquartered at Golf House in Far Hills, New Jersey . </P> <P> The USGA was originally formed in 1894 to resolve the question of a national amateur championship . Earlier that year, the Newport Country Club and Saint Andrew's Golf Club, Yonkers, New York, both declared the winners of their tournaments the "national amateur champion ." That autumn, delegates from Newport, St. Andrew's, The Country Club, Chicago Golf Club, and Shinnecock Hills Golf Club met in New York City to form a national governing body, which would administer the championship and also the Rules of Golf for the country . On December 22, 1894, the Amateur Golf Association of the United States was officially formed, and was shortly thereafter renamed the "United States Golf Association ." Theodore Havemeyer was the first president, and the U.S. Amateur trophy is named in his honor . </P>
