The PGA Tour comes back to Harbour Town Golf Links.
Harbour Town was built in 1967 and primarily designed by Pete Dye with the help of Jack Nicklaus. IMO, it's the best course that either Nicklaus or Dye designed.
Contrary to what the above video may tell you, Harbour Town does gneerally favor the short, but accurate golfers off the tee. But to Davis Love's credit..he was one of the longest players ever in his era and has won at Harbour Town 5 times in his career.
This is a tight course where mid-length approach shots are paramount to a Tour player's success here. Also, as shown in the video, bunker play is at a premium as well.
PROJECTED WINNING SCORE: -11
