    WHISTLING STRAITS® FACTS “I should say this with some degree of modesty. But in my lifetime, I’ve never seen anything like this. Anyplace. Period.” Pete Dye, World Golf Hall of Fame Designer Blackwolf Run® and Whistling Straits A throwback to the raw freshness of Ireland sculpted into the Wisconsin coastline Whistling Straits is part of Destination Kohler in Kohler, Wisconsin. Located off the shore of Lake Michigan, Whistling Straits is comprised of two, 18-hole championship golf courses that continue to challenge the best professional and amateur golfers around the world. Arguably the best golf experience in America, these Pete Dye-designed courses continue to be ranked at the top of the list of “America’s 100 Greatest Public Golf Courses” by Golf Digest. CHAMPIONSHIPS – PAST & FUTURE EVENTS 2020 Ryder Cup will be hosted on The Straits® at Whistling Straits. 2015 PGA Championship was hosted on The Straits. This was the third time the PGA Championship was hosted on The Straits and the championship didn’t disappoint. On Sunday afternoon two of the world’s best, Jason Day and Jordan Spieth, battled for the Wannamaker Trophy. Day fired an impressive final round 67 to beat Spieth by 3 shots and capture the 2015 PGA Championship title, his first major championship. The 2010 PGA Championship was hosted on The Straits. This was the second time the PGA Championship was hosted on The Straits, and for the second time on this riveting and unforgiving course, the winner had to be determined by a playoff. With the sun setting quickly and a nerve-wracking three-hole playoff between Martin Kaymer and Bubba Watson, it was Kaymer who pulled through for the win.

An overwhelming 86 percent of respondents answered “Yes.” When asked to identify priority areas for protection, many respondents mentioned the existing parks, the Arboretum, River Wildlife, and related areas. The next question was similar, but focused on “man-made” resources. Identify any cultural and historical resources in the Village of Kohler that are worthy of protection.

  • Thank You for Giving Me an Opportunity to Read and Comment on the Draft Environmental Impact Statement Which Was Prepared As Part of the Kohler Co
    From: Carl Buesing To: DNR Kohler Proposal Subject: Comments on Kohler Golf Course proposal for the Town of Wilson Date: Thursday, July 21, 2016 5:15:04 PM Thank you for giving me an opportunity to read and comment on the draft environmental impact statement which was prepared as part of the Kohler Co. golf course proposal in the Town of Wilson, Sheboygan County. As a City of Sheboygan native and long-time resident, I generally agree with the report and its observations. I support the Kohler Co.’s proposal. All of us would prefer to maintain and preserve from development as much area adjacent to Lake Michigan as practible. We should feel fortunate that Kohler has allowed the property to remain undeveloped for as long as it has up to now. However, Kohler ought to be given the opportunity to use its own land as it chooses. Among the infinite potential uses for the property, it would seem that there many more uses would be much more intrusive and less environmentally friendly than Kohler’s intended plans for a golf course. Thus, I would characterize the Kohler plan as a “win-win” for all interested parties. The report makes fleeting reference to the Amsterdam Dunes as being a recreational and public area in Sheboygan County. Perhaps it is a matter of timing, but I think there is an intangible symmetry between the Amsterdam Dunes and the Kohler proposal. Amsterdam Dunes is an undeveloped parcel some 7 or 8 miles south of the Kohler property that was acquired by Sheboygan County in 2014.
