We recently had the opportunity to travel to New Orleans and tee it up at TPC Louisiana. What a great day!
We’ll have much more coming soon, as our trip to the Big Easy will be featured in the Winter Issue of Southern Fairways. Here’s a preview:
- TPC Louisiana is part of the fantastic TPC Network of courses. #PlayTPC
- The PGA Tour’s Zurich Classic is played at TPC Louisiana.
- Since 2017, the event has used a two-player team event… a one-of-a-kind on tour.
- Patrick Cantlay and Xander Schauffele are the defending champions.
- TPC Louisiana is located in Avondale, just 20 minutes or so from the heart of the city.
- We enjoyed our stay at the NOPSI Hotel, a great spot (with a rooftop pool) located in the CBD and just a 5-minute walk to Bourbon Street.
- TPC Louisiana was designed by the legendary Pete Dye with consultation from PGA Professionals Steve Elkington and Kelly Gibson, a Louisiana native.
- Don’t let Dye’s name scare you away. Although challenging, TPC Louisiana is a fun and challenging course for players of all abilities.
- The course is set on 250 acres adjacent to the Mississippi River Delta.
- There is plenty of nature and wildlife to enjoy, and yes you will probably see an alligator or two!
- Rates at TPC Louisiana start at just $89.00, an amazing deal.
- Visit tpc.com/louisiana for more details, or to book your tee time!
Those are just a few highlights of TPC Louisiana. #PlayTPC
