CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Like nearly every other golf course that hosts the PGA Tour’s best and brightest, Quail Hollow Club has gotten increasingly longer in recent years.
When the course first hosted the Wells Fargo Championship in 2003 it played 7,396 yards, which at the time was longer than the average Tour layout. For this week’s event, the course will play 7,575 yards, and that’s not including a few new tees that club officials have worked in recently.
The club has been undergoing a series of revisions since being named the site of the 2017 PGA Championship and 2021 Presidents Cup, and some of the new distance isn’t even being used for this week’s Tour stop, like a new tee at the par-4 fourth hole.
