Frisco, TX
Golf's new headquarters — major-championship fairways, a lit par-3 course and a two-acre putting green.
Frisco is where the PGA of America planted its flag, and Fields Ranch is the result: East, the Gil Hanse design already hosting the association's championships with more majors on the calendar, and West, Beau Welling's friendlier companion across the creek. The genius of the place is what happens after the scorecard rounds — The Swing, a lighted ten-hole par-3 course, and the Dance Floor, a two-acre putting green with a bar, keep matches running past midnight. The Omni resort ties it together, and Dallas' twin airports make the flights the easy part.
