The stadium

TPC Sawgrass — The Players Stadium Course

Designed by Pete Dye.

Home of THE PLAYERS Championship since 1982, and golf's most famous island green.

Pete Dye built the first stadium course here in 1980 — mounds for the crowds, water for the stars — and THE PLAYERS has never left. The island-green 17th, an idea credited to Alice Dye, is the most replayed par 3 in the game, and the 18th along the lake may be the hardest closer you face all year. Your package plays it once, the way the pros see it, grandstands or not.
