  • Whistling Straits Fact Sheet.Pdf
    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.

This article contin- ues with Question 27, which begins a new section on natural resources, followed by questions on economic development. Residents who wish to see complete, detailed survey results can obtain a copy of the tabulated survey from the Village Clerk’s office. Question 27 asked Is protection of woodlands, wetlands, and open spaces important? 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. Typical responses included the Waelderhaus, the American Club, the older homes in the Village, the band shell and Ravine Park, among others.
