Trinity Forest Golf Club is an 18-hole private golf club in the southern United States, located in Dallas, Texas.[1][4]

Southeast of downtown Dallas, the club was founded in 2014 and the course opened for play in autumn 2016.[5] Built on a former landfill, the treeless links-style course was designed by Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw and features diversely architectured holes over undulating terrain.[1][4]

Trinity Forest became the host course for the AT&T Byron Nelson on the PGA Tour in 2018, held in May.[5][6] It is also the home of the SMU Mustangs men's and women's college golf teams.[7]
