It was important because Nathanael Greene attacked Cornwallis and led him in a cat and mouse game. After that battle the battle of Yorktown was in play and Cornwallis Surrendered to the Patriots. So basically Because of Greene leading Cornwallis in a trap is why they won the war.

About four or five thousand American militia were camped near Guilford Courthouse, the county courthouse in Greenboro, North Carolina. English General Corwallis heard they were there and set off to attack them.
