Host of the 1991 PGA Championship won by John Daly and the 2012 BMW Championship, Crooked Stick is Pete Dye's longtime home club and one of his most personal designs.

Newburgh, Indiana · Tom Fazio (1998) · 18 holes · Par 72 · 7,209 yards

A Tom Fazio design in southern Indiana, Victoria National is consistently ranked as the best course in the state. The stunning layout winds through ravines, ridges, and hardwood forest along a former Ohio River flood plain with bold Fazio shaping and tournament-quality conditioning.

Built on a former coal mine, Pete Dye Golf Club is one of the architect's most ambitious and dramatic designs.

Indianapolis, Indiana · William H. Diddel (1924) · 18 holes · Par 72 · 6,800 yards

One of Indianapolis's most respected private clubs, Broadmoor was designed by noted Indiana architect William Diddel in 1924.
