Quail Hollow
George Cobb designed the original Quail Hollow layout in 1959 to fit on 257 acres of a former dairy farm. In 1997 and 2003 Tom Fazio retooled the course; in between, Quail Hollow hosted both the Kemper Open for ten years and the PaineWebber International for seven before being awarded the Wachovia Championship (now the Quail Hollow Championship) in 2003. Not bad for a former dairy farm, and completely understandable if you consider its undulating greens, tight fairways and bunkers. This course demands all the finesse players like Tiger Woods, Vijay Singh and Jim Furyk can muster, especially on No. 17, a 212-yard carry over water to an island green.
