Stonebriar Country Club
The golf : A demanding, modern course designed
primarily by Ken Dye, with some input from Joe Finger and Byron
Nelson, the private Stonebriar CC course is adjacent to the Westin
Stonebriar Resort, which also offers a spectacular Tom Fazio course
for club members and guests of the resort.
Dye’s design routes around four interconnecting lakes that
bring water into play on 13 of 18 holes. The fairways feature severe
undulations, and the greens are extremely quick. Both Senior PGA
and LPGA events have been held here, and participants confirmed
that the most difficult hole is the 438-yard No. 9. Water squeezes
the fairway on both sides, and the landing area narrows and eventually
becomes all water at 230 yards out. This means that the long approach
is going to be testy into the green protected by water on the right.
On the back, No. 15 is considered the most difficult–another
long par 4 that rolls alongside a creek on the right. Interestingly,
the green on No. 15 is shared with hole 7.
