ASTA is proud to bring our golfers to TPC Louisiana, host of the PGA TOUR event, the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, for our annual Golf Tournament. Buses will depart the Sheraton New Orleans by 7:00 am on Tuesday, January 22 for this fabulous day of golfing at a time of year when the green is at its best!
Situated on 250 acres across the Mississippi River from New Orleans, TPC Louisiana was designed by a man who knows how to turn a site with limited topography into a beautiful and compelling test of golf. Pete Dye, who created the flagship layout for the PGA TOUR, TPC Sawgrass, was called on again for another challenge. TPC Louisiana is now host of the PGA TOUR event, the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. The course offers four sets of tees, and even though the championship course stretches to 7,300 yards from the championship tees, Dye is pleased about a collection of short but challenging par-4 holes that complement some of the longer ones.
• Course Designer - Pete Dye (Architect), assisted by PGA TOUR player consultants Steve Elkington and Louisiana native Kelly Gibson.
• Location - built on 250 acres of low lying wetlands along the Mississippi river delta. The club is conveniently located 12 miles from downtown New Orleans in the suburb of Avondale. TPC Louisiana is the only PGA TOUR facility in the state.
• Golf Course - Par for the course is 72, and the yardage from the championship tees is 7520. The course incorporates many natural challenges including five (5) water ponds and 103 bunkers (69 pot bunkers). Five sets of tee boxes per hole allowing all caliber's of golfers to experience a unique golfing challenge.
