Aside from Augusta National and Pebble Beach, perhaps no professional golf arena is more instantly recognizable than The Players Stadium Course at TPC Sawgrass. At a glance, golf fans can identify not just the climactic holes at the TPC (as it’s commonly been called since its genre-bending architecture was unleashed on the world in 1980,
6:29 PM ET MAN, I TOLD my brother, you really stepped in it this time. Dan shot me a sideways look as we headed for the 17th hole at Augusta National on Sunday, April 14, 2019. “You’ve never been to a major golf championship before,” I said. “And here you are witnessing the greatest Masters

7:50 PM ET ORLANDO, Fla. — Five Sundays from now, the struggles at Bay Hill will be but a faded memory, a result that will have no impact either way on whether Rory McIlroy wakes up on Easter morning with a green jacket in his sights. Sure, it stings to let an opportunity get away

Throw a golf ball against a jagged rock and no two bounces will be the same. When Rory McIlroy reviewed the tape of his approach shot to the 18th green on Saturday in the third round of the Arnold Palmer Invitational, he was going to see just how unlucky he was. Two inches higher, or
Tiger Woods is back, a notion signaled with intoxicating runs in 2018, confirmed at last year’s Masters and reiterated with dazzling displays in Japan and Australia. That doesn’t mean Tiger Woods is back, or at least what the sport wants that word to mean. Woods is passing on the Players Championship, his body not ready

There is a debate surrounding the Players Championship, one that surfaces every year when the tournament arrives. We’re not going to get into it here, since we don’t have four hours to quarrel.

Among golf-course-architecture circles we often fall into a cliché of talking about a contemporary youth movement of up-and-coming designers training and working for the likes of Bill Coore, Tom Doak and Gil Hanse.
