“One of the more difficult courses in the TPC network. Tee shots are an absolute premium and must find the fairway. Hardly any room to miss. Green shaped sizes and speeds are all good and with solid variety. Course flows through the property well. Really in good condition. Lots of water on the course and several holes required thinking through execution."

“Removal of 650 trees exposes much of the wetlands that lined the holes, outside of the tree lines. Water now comes into play on almost every hole. Green complexes are modestly sloped with many green surrounds having closely mown collection areas. The course could be picked up and moved to the east coast of Georgia or along the gulf coast in Mississippi and it would fit right in. Just would be missing a palm tree or two and some gators."

“TPC Wisconsin has wide, firm fairways surrounded by wetlands and ponds. The wetland areas make fairways seem more narrow than they are and on most holes you have the option to fly or run you approach shots onto the green. There is a good mix in the lengths of holes and the routing makes the course very walkable for players of all ages. Fairways are in great condition and the putting surfaces roll extremely smooth. Low handicappers won't have too much trouble navigating the course and will find many scoring opportunities but it can be a long day for high handicappers that struggle hitting the ball straight."

“TPC Wisconsin underwent a significant renovation re-routing holes, creating new and improved green complexes, and raising fairways to improve turf conditions. This was the old Cherokee Country Club. Holes wind through the marsh/wetlands so bring a lot of golf balls! Course has a great tee system so find the correct set of tees and you will have a more enjoyable experience. The course will host the AmFam Senior Championship starting in 2025."
