About Sawgrass Marriott - The Players Stadium (Ponte Vedra Beach, FL)

Regarded as Pete Dye's masterpiece, THE PLAYERS 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.
