There hasn't been this much excitement surrounding a golf course opening in the Midwest since Whistling Straits burst onto the scene more than a decade ago.
This course is really, really long. Dye himself said he could've stretched it all the way to 9,000 yards. From the very back tees, the course can accommodate up to 8,100 yards. The Pete Dye Course at Course at French Lick will host the 2010 PGA Professional National Championship, and I wouldn't be surprised if a major championship, at least a major USGA amateur event, shortly followed.

It is hard to play a course in Indiana and get such spectatcular views as this course. From the pictures, this course has a traditional and elegant feel to it.
