This Day in Golf History: December 29

The great American golf course architect Pete Dye was born on this date in 1925 in Urbana, Ohio. The creator of bulkhead bunkers and greens, Dye’s TPC Stadium Course in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, is likely his most well known design. He was one of the notable golf deaths in 2020 when he died on January 9.
