TPC at Sugarloaf

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

TPC at Sugarloaf (full name Tournament Players Club at Sugarloaf) is an 18-hole golf course, located in Duluth, Georgia, a suburb of Atlanta. The course, which was created in 1996 to a design by Greg Norman, has been the home of the annual AT&T Classic golf tournament (part of the PGA Tour) since 1997. The actual course comprises 27 holes, but only eighteen of them are used as to comply with PGA Tour rules.

The land on which the course was built was formerly the O. Wayne Rollins family farm, where they kept purebred cattle and horses.

The golf course opened in the spring of 1997 with its first week of operation hosting the 1997 BellSouth Classic. A few weeks before the club was to open the property was hit by a tornado damaging many trees on the first and ninth holes and damaging corporate tent structures around the 18th green.
