TPC Sawgrass - Dye's Valley Course

Course condition was excellent. Caddie was good. Staff is friendly and helpful.

The rough is too penal. Not a fan of trees in the fairway or right in front of the tee. Seems to be a Pete Dye thing. The 16th & 17th holes are back to back par fives which is OK, but the holes are too similar to each other. Too much water for my taste.

Great course in outstanding shape, friendly, helpful staff. Really couldn't ask for more. The rough was troublesome as in tough. Wouldn't hurt to cut it down.

Only have a chipping and putting practice area as the driving range is being upgraded.

It is a "must play again" course. Excellent shape, lots of hills. Yes, it's Florida and I said that.

This course is absolutely beautiful.

Played June 21st at 3:35 PM for $90. Played in <3 hrs with son as twosome with new Taylor Made M2 rentals. Driving range was closed but it's more important to practice putting and chipping. I'm 54 with an 8 handicap and not a long hitter. Played the mixed tees.

What followed was a thoroughly enjoyable and challenging round of golf. Par 4s and 5s challenging and par 3s playable. Greens still had some sand from aeration 3 weeks ago but rolled well. Very firm and had a few good shots roll off the back until I got used to them. Fairways in great shape. Water on so many holes wears you down by the time you're midway through back 9. Must be accurate off the tee. Shot 39-43 and very happy.

Staff was great. I would definitely play again.

The tees boxes need to be marked with the yardage. The card has them marked, in very tiny print, by the way, but when you walk up to the tees, there are no yardage markers, so you have to guess exactly how long the hole is, which is lame.

I have nothing less than superlatives for our round on Dye's Valley Course. The course is in excellent shape. The staff was helpful, considerate and cordial.

There was nothing less than excellent and that made for a great day.

Thanks to the staff and management.

TPC Valley Course was in good shape. Fairways were still a bit sandy after having been aerated just over a week ago, but the greens were in excellent condition. We played in the morning and enjoyed the round so much, we played again in the afternoon. The staff could not have been friendlier and was very accommodating. I can't wait to see how the Stadium Course greens and course changes come in this November.

While I was disappointed that the Stadium course was closed until November 2016, the Dye Valley course was truely a challenging and beautiful course. The staff and amenities were top notch. You've got to experience this one!

Things were bad for a while but with they have worked hard to improve conditions here. The greens are finally growing. They have patched the problems pretty seamlessly. They look healthy. The rest of the course is very good. The fairways are perfect. We played in 4:10

I really enjoyed it. This is a real Dye gem. no walk in the park. Play the white tees. They'll give you plenty of interest.

The pace of play is ridiculous. They had a 24 man beer fueled bachelor party on the course this morning plus a bunch of other dimwits who had no respect for anyone else on the course. Grated the rangers finally got the mess cleared up after 10 holes but there is no excuse for this. And then there is the condition of the greens. They got some ugly looking fungus growing , bald patches, shoddy replacement patches. The place was closed for 6 months last year to improve them. It's a mess. The "members" are getting a very poor deal here and the resort folks are surprised at the poor conditions.

The course was in pretty good shape, the fairways were the best fairways I have every played, but the greens had a lot of rough spots, but rolled pretty good. The staff is very friendly. The course has a lot of water and had very tight fairways with big greens. I think it is a little bit over priced because of the greens.

Nothing special greens were beat up and course layout didn't excite me

After playing the "icon" last year in the Stadium Course on my return to the area this year I made it a point to go back and see what the Valley course had to offer. Yes it does not get the hoopla that it's big brother gets but as for a golf course design, difficulty is there ,scenery is everywhere, greens are great, and overall conditions were fine for winter months. I would love to play this place in full season for grasses. Anyways think about your handicap before you start and don't think this is a push because it has no bleachers or island. The design offers many challenges based on placement of water, bunkers both fairways and greenside. Fairways are fair and have many pot type bunkers of grass and moguls for challenging your stance. Greens were rolling just fine and my est. would be about 11 on the meter. This part of TPC offers much more serenity, plenty of world class treatment and golf that you will enjoy and remember. I highly recommend that if you play Stadium you should also play the Valley to take in everything Pete Dye and the PGA has to offer you.

Hardest course that I've ever played. Pete dye punishes you when you hit a bad shot. Forecaddie helped because of the cart path only rule. They take very good care of the course and the conditions are perfect. Also the staff are very helpful and kind

Nice course - great greens and difficult. Requires a solid tee ball put in play each hole -otherwise the 3rd cut rough will eat the ball alive. I played 3.5 weeks before the Web.com championship and after a week of 13+ inches of rain - there was no roll and the rough was already tall being grown out and lack of mowing due the rain.

Overall all I like the course but didn't expect to see so many houses.

This course has a great layout, however the course was so wet, the "cart paths only" rule was in effect. It was so wet that balls were plugging in the fairways and roughs. The course was almost unplayable. However, the greens fee was not discounted to compensate for the poor playing conditions.

You are paying for the TPC name at this one. While everything about the course is nice, and there will be memories as you roll up to the famed clubhouse and snap pictures around the grounds, the golf is simply not worth the price.

The Dye Valley course is a nice challenge that is more forgiving than the Stadium course. The greens weren't as consistent as the Stadium course. The grain wasn't as defined and made putt reading less obvious. Not easy to determine which way grain was heading. That actually took the grain out of many of the putts. The fairways leave room for error. You can play away from trouble if you have reasonable control of you shots. Its a nice compliment to the Stadium course and I would play it anytime I am down there to play the Stadium course.

I don't get a chance to play high end courses very often, so I was really excited about playing the Valley course. To say I was disappointed would be an understatement. To start with, there was heavy equipment operating and construction going on virtually every hole, cart paths were blocked with no clear indication of where to drive your carts or move about the course. The course conditions themselves were only fair with the grass cut right down to the dirt, and as slick of greens as I have ever played on. I probably drove by 5 or 6 courses on the way that were less than half as expensive, and in better shape. I really expected a lot more, and I think the staff should have been up front about course conditions and all of the construction going on.
