THE COURSE – Par 72 | 7,308 yards
Like No. 30 Pikewood National, Pete Dye Golf Club is a 100 Greatest course built atop a West Virginia mining deposit, but in this case, it's an active coal mine. (The club's original name was Coal Ridge.) Evidence of that fact is everywhere, from the strip-mine wall along the par-5 eighth and the black cinder bunkers on the par-4 sixth to the abandoned coal train that curls around the outside of the dogleg on the 10th. There's even a coal mine shaft you can walk through to reach the seventh tee. Construction took so long that Dye's style had evolved by the time the full 18 was finally seeded. Early holes sport the railroad-tie motif of Oak Tree National while later holes feature the echo-chamber bunkering of Whistling Straits.
TEAM/TOURNAMENT/PROGRAM NOTES
- At the Mountaineer Invitational last season, Hudson Wilt was runner-up at 2-over 218, which included a first round score of 5-under 67. TCU finished sixth as a team.
- The Frogs finished tied for 17th at The Goodwin last time out. Competing as an individual, Lewis Wright led the Frogs at even-par 210 and had a final round of 5-under 65.
- TCU has finished in the top three in its first four tournaments of the spring. The Frogs finished second at the Palmas del Mar Collegiate, third at the Watersound Invitational and second at The Desimone Invitational.
- To end the fall, TCU finished as runner-up at the Ka'anapali Classic on Oct. 29, 2025. The score of 51-under par was the best score by the program since at least the 1993-94 season and total core of 801 was the best ever in that time frame. Udovich's score of 19-under at the Ka'anapali Classic tied for the lowest score vs. par for 54 holes by a TCU player since at least the 1993-94 season.
