Pete Dye: Top 40 Public Courses

Whistling Straits, WI

Pete Dye first became well known when he collaborated with Jack Nicklaus to design Harbour Town Golf Links at The Sea Pines Resort in 1969–the iconic venue for the PGA Tour’s RBC Heritage. In the 1970’s, Dye crafted a great many wonderful courses, including The Cardinal in North Carolina and The River Course at Kingsmill Resort in Virginia (both in 1974).

TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, however, was the work that launched Pete Dye into the stratosphere of golf course architecture. Dean Beaman, former commissioner of the PGA Tour, had conceived the Tournament Players Championship in 1974 as the Tour’s flagship event, and it gained notoriety through the decade with powerful fields as Jack Nicklaus, greatest player in the world, won 3 of the first 5.

Beaman wanted to elevate the tournament still further however, and to do that he needed a permanent venue that could stand with the four majors and support world class golf at the very highest level—so he turned to Pete Dye.

Not only did he want a course that would be a very stiff test for the world’s greatest players, he also wanted breathtaking visual appeal for a growing television market, as well as viewing areas that would maximize the experience for fans—a “stadium course.”

Dye delivered precisely what Dean Beaman envisioned, incorporating risk and reward throughout the layout to build excitement and drama, creating a canvas to capture a multitude of memorable moments that would live on in history and become “The Players.”

Ocean Course, Kiawah Island, SC

In addition to his masterpiece at TPC Sawgrass, Pete Dye designs have become the backbone of the PGA Championship rotation beginning with Crooked Stick in 1991, as well as Whistling Straits, Kohler WI in 2004 and 2015, and the Ocean Course at Kiawah Island, SC in 2012 and 2021).

Pete Dye designed well over 100 courses throughout his illustrious career, and more than half of them are open to public play (Pete Dye-Public).

TPC at Sawgrass and The Players Championship: History and 2024 Preview

This week will mark the 50th anniversary of The Players Championship–the showcase event on the PGA Tour. From Jack Nicklaus (winner in ‘74, ‘76, and ‘78), to Greg Norman (’94), to Tiger Woods (’01 and ’13) to Rory McIlroy (’19) and Scottie Scheffler (reigning champion), The Players has been a magnificent stage for the greats of the game to display their immense talent.

Rory is still at the top of his game if he holes a few putts (ranked No. 2 in the world), and Scottie Scheffler is on fire as the hands down favorite this week (No. 1 in the world, 2023 Players champ, and fresh off a dominating 5 shot victory at Bay Hill last week), but the field is extremely deep with a host of major champions and talented young stars, so the odds are good that a new name will be etched on the 2024 Players Championship trophy.  

Scottie and Rory: 1 and 2 in the World Rankings

Preview

Wyndham Clark, the reigning U.S. Open Champion, is coming off a breakout season in 2023 where he recorded 8 Top Ten’s including 2 wins, and missed only 3 cuts. Thus far in ’24 he has made 5 of 6 cuts with a win at Pebble Beach in February and a runner-up last week at Bay Hill. Clark crushes it from the tee, so if he’s finding fairways this week you will likely see him among the last groups to go off on Sunday afternoon.

Wyndham Clark: Reigning U.S. Open Champion

Will Zalatoris, one of the premier ball-strikers in golf, is making only his sixth start following back surgery that cost him the bulk of the 2023 season. Not only did Will miss nine months of competitive golf, he was forced to make a major swing change to reduce the stress on his back. Recipe for a tough comeback year, right? Nope–in fact with his new putting approach (Broomstick Putter), he may be better than ever.

Will Zalatoris: Amazing Comeback

Zalatoris heads into the Players following a runner-up at the Genesis in LA and a T5 last week at Bay Hill—this may be the week when all that hard work delivers the ultimate payoff. 

Xander Schauffele has not missed a cut since the 2022 Masters (40 consecutive events). And while he didn’t win in 2023, and hasn’t had a win yet this year, Schauffele has recorded 15 Top 10’s in his last 29 events—a level of performance only surpassed by Scottie Scheffler (22 Top 10’s).

One thing’s for sure—Xander is due (but will the putter cooperate down the stretch?). Speaking of players that are due, Victor Hoveland has made the cut in all four events he’s played this year without recording a Top 10. Considering his 2023 season included 9 Top 10’s and 3 wins, you have to believe a big week is looming (plus one of Victor’s Top 10’s last year was a T3 at the Players).

Viktor Hoveland: 3 Wins in 2023

After a disastrous 2023 campaign, Justin Thomas has righted the ship with a T3, a T6 and two T12’s in 5 events this year. With a pair of major championships under his belt and a win at the Players in 2021, don’t be surprised if Justin is lurking on the leaderboard come Sunday. There are quite a few young players to keep an eye on as well, including Sahith Theegala, Ludvig Aberg, Jake Knapp and Nick Dunlap.

Sahith Theegala: Looking for the Big Win

Theegala has made 6 of 7 cuts this year including 3 Top-10’s, on top of 8 Top-10’s with a win in 2023. Ludwig Aberg, the long hitting Texas A&M standout from Sweden, has made the cut in all 6 of his starts this year including 2 Top-10’s. Jake Knapp recorded a win at the Mexico Open in February, and has made 6 of 7 cuts with 3 Top 10’s. Twenty-year old Nick Dunlap bested the field at The American Express in January while still a student at Alabama, the first amateur to win a PGA Tour event since Phil won the Northern Telecom Open all the way back in 1991.

Nick Dunlap: First Amateur Win Since Phil

Dunlap is a long shot for sure, particularly because experience goes a long way at TPC Sawgrass, but he has the power and precision—so maybe he’ll deliver an all-time shocker (he already did it once this year).

History

In the early 1970’s, former PGA Tour commissioner Deane Beman wanted to create a championship that would showcase the talent and power of professional golf in America, and shine a bright light on the PGA Tour—home to the greatest golfers in the world.

Initially called “The Tournament Players Championship,” Beman’s vision immediately gained momentum as Jack won the inaugural event in 1974, and three of the first five. The next step was to build a permanent venue that could stand with the four majors, demanding championship golf at the highest level—and so Pete Dye was brought aboard. Not only did Beman want a course that would be a stiff test of golf, he also wanted breathtaking visual appeal and viewing areas that would maximize the experience for fans.

TPC Sawgrass: Pete Dye Masterpiece

Pete Dye delivered precisely what was ordered, and then he added icing on the cake with classically positioned risk and reward holes to build maximum excitement and drama—thus creating a treasure trove of moments to be remembered and discussed year after year.

 The Stadium Course at TPC at Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, FL is perennially ranked by Golf Digest among the top 100 golf facilities in the U.S., and is one of Pete Dye’s crowning achievements. And to guarantee the field is maintained at a major championship level, the PGA Tour has continuously raised the purse over the years, making The Players the richest golf event in the world by a wide margin (this year the purse stands at $25 million).

Memorable Moments: Be The Right Club Today

Most everybody has seen the clip of Hal Sutton intently staring down an approach shot, saying “Be the right club…be the right club today!” 2000 Players Championship, eighteenth hole, eyeball to eyeball with Tiger Woods at the very top of his game.
