Course Information
Marriott Sawgrass - Sawgrass Cpuntry Club: Sawgrass Country
Club features 27 holes of championship golf designed by Ed Seay,
Arnold Palmer's design partner. Consistently ranked in the top 100
courses to play by Golf Digest, the Oceanside Course (East-West
nines) was the original home to the Tournament Players Championship
from 1977 to 1981. Since then, the South nine has been added to
complete the facility. Do not miss an opportunity to play Sawgrass
while staying at the Marriott, it's a great, great golf club.
Marriott Sawgrass - Marsh Landing: Arguably the most scenic
course available through the Marriott at Sawgrass, Marsh Landing's
layout meanders through the tidal ecosystems of the intracostal
waterway. The fairways frequently give way to natural wetlands and
the greens are guarded by palms and well placed bunkers. Several
holes require superb shot-making as you are required to carry marshlands
off the tee and from tee to green. This private club was designed
by Arnold Palmer's design partner, Ed Seay. Of all the great courses
in Northeast Florida, Marsh Landing certainly holds its own as one
of the best!
Marriott Sawgrass - TPC Stadium Course: Regarded as Pete
Dye's masterpiece, the TPC Stadium Course has become the crown jewel
of the courses played on the PGA TOUR. Before the course came along
in 1980, few golf courses that hosted major golf events were accessible
to the general public. Now there are some 21 TPC Courses available
to the public in the U.S. Many golfers remember that the layout
was very controversial when it first opened because it was so difficult.
However, Dye listened and made changes to soften the course and
make it "more fair." Through the years, there is no question
that it has become one of the most popular courses with the Players.
Huge mounds bordering the fairways provide an amphitheater type
of setting making players feel like they are on center stage. You'll
feel that way too, especially as you attempt to keep on dry land
on the infamous 17th island green.
Marriott Sawgrass - TPC Valley Course: The second course
at the TPC at Sawgrass was originally built for the Senior Tour
and finished in 1987. Lateral water hazards are common with water
coming into play on 14 holes, yet there are no forced carries over
water. Other trademarks of this Bobby Weed/Pete Dye design include
rolling hills and large sweeping greens making club selection very
important. Player consultant, Jerry Pate, also had a large influence
on the Valley's design.
