Course
The Pete Dye designed PLAYERS Stadium Course is home to one of the most challenging and photographed holes in the world, the famed 17th Island Green. It is also home of THE PLAYERS Championship, one of the most coveted titles in golf. Enhancements made as part of an extensive restoration of the course have elevated both the tournament and competitive play to a higher level. The PLAYERS Stadium allows golfers to experience access usually reserved exclusively for PGA TOUR players. In 2006, the tees, fairways and greens on THE PLAYERS Stadium Course were rebuilt with new sand and a modern drainage system to encourage "firm and fast" conditions. Offline shots are more likely to roll into difficult spots among or behind 200 newly planted trees (oaks, pines and palms). Natural waste areas, lower-level bunkers, greenside chipping areas and water hazards may also come into play more often. The course will not be over-seeded with ryegrass, as was necessary for the previous March date of THE PLAYERS, resulting in a faster playing surface year-round. But more than the changes, Pete Dye said the alterations will allow for one basic tenet: a better course year round.
