10-25-2007

The PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. – The PGA Golf Club, in Port St. Lucie, Fla., home to 54-holes of Championship golf, the prestigious PGA Learning Center and PGA Historical Center, unveiled in conjunction with the recent grand re-opening of the 18-hole restoration of the Dye Course, the "To Dye Fore" golf package. On the heels of famed architect Pete Dye refining his original links style design, The PGA Golf Club is now offering golfers a unique 3-day, 3-night "Stay and Play" option at one of the premier golf facilities in the country through travel partner Golfpac.

 

The "To Dye Fore" package includes three rounds of golf at The PGA Golf Club, highlighted by rounds on the recently renovated Dye Course and the two recently renovated Tom Fazio designs – the Carolina-style Ryder Course and the classic Florida-style Wanamaker Course at The PGA Golf Club. This is in addition to a complimentary round of golf on the day of arrival for guests who have booked three rounds or more during their visit.

 

"Golfers from around the world are going to fall in love with the beautification and restoration that was completed over the past year on the Dye, Wanamaker and Ryder Courses at The PGA Golf Club," said Bob Baldassari, PGA general manager of The PGA Golf Club. "With the 'To Dye Fore' Package, golf enthusiasts have an attractively priced means of enjoying these three unique courses at The PGA Golf Club, ranked by Golf Digest as one of the '75 Best Golf Resorts.'"

 

Landscaping modifications to the Dye Course are most evident on the first hole, which was enhanced to create an open bowl effect, offering golfers stunning views of the 100-acre "Big Mamu" Wetlands. Additional refinements include the installation of new Champion Ultra Dwarf putting surfaces, Paspalum teeing grounds, bunker improvements, and a new coquina base and irrigation system along the car paths. The "To Dye Fore" package celebrates the culmination of the renovations of all three Championship courses.
