PGA MEDIA GUIDE PGA Professional National Championship n The National Championship Makes Its Debut in Indiana PGA Professional National Championship French Lick Resort Awaits Nation’s Finest PGA Professionals Not since the opening of Whistling Straits in Wisconsin has there been a more anticipated opening in the Midwest, and Hall of Fame architect Pete Dye is responsible for both. The new Pete Dye Course at French Lick Resort opened to the public on April 24, 2009. In January 2010, paid one of its top honors to French Lick Resort, selecting the Pete Dye Course as its “Best New Public Course” in the country. French Lick Resort is situated on rolling hills overlooking the Hoosier National Forest in southern Indiana. The historic resort is lo- cated in the small town of French Lick, where for more than two cen- turies the Pluto Mineral Springs has attracted visitors. It is also known as the hometown of basketball legend Larry Bird. The PGA of America’s first PGA Professional National Champi- onship to be contested in Indiana appropriately arrives at French Lick, along with a crystal trophy – the Walter Hagen Cup – honoring the man who campaigned throughout his career for the elevation of the golf profession and who by his efforts both on and off the course gave added meaning to the multi-talented role of a PGA Profes- The Pete Dye Course, which opened in April 2009, is one of two sional. celebrated layouts at French Lick Resort that will test the best PGA Professionals in June. French Lick also is a town that has become one of the great golf destinations in the country. Since the early 1900s, golf has been an integral part of this resort. Tom Bendelow designed the first course in 1907 followed by legendary Donald Ross 10 years later. In 2009, French Lick moved to a new level with the opening of The Pete Dye Course. Dye, an Indiana native and 2008 inductee into the , is renowned for his innovative course designs. In 1982, Dye introduced stadium golf at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla. What followed were a series of Dye signature designs including The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island, S.C., PGA West in La Quinta, Calif., Whistling Straits in Kohler, Wis., and now French Lick Re- sort. “I have spent the past five decades designing golf courses all over the world, including courses on great coastal sites,” says Dye, the 2004 PGA Distinguished Service Award recipient. “The course at French Lick Resort brings great excitement to [wife] Alice and me because the course is on arguably the best inland site I have ever worked on.” Complementing the new Pete Dye course at French Lick Resort is the historic Donald Ross course, which has just undergone a $4.6 million restoration project that has brought the course back to Ross’s original plans. French Lick is now the only resort in the world that combines the classic history of Donald Ross and the modern-day design of the leg- endary Dye. This combination is a spectacular opportunity for golf- ers to experience two of the best designers who ever shaped beautiful landscapes into golf courses.
