Whistling Straits and The American Club
Resort Area · Sheboygan, Wisconsin
Two miles of Lake Michigan bluff in Sheboygan County that Pete and Alice Dye reshaped in the 1990s into a links course on the Irish model, complete with a flock of Blackface sheep and around a thousand bunkers nobody has ever successfully counted. It hosted the PGA Championship in 2004, 2010 and 2015 and the 2021 Ryder Cup, where the United States beat Europe 19-9, the largest margin of the modern era. It is public-access resort golf rather than a private club, run out of The American Club at Kohler, a 1924 Tudor Revival building put up by the Kohler company as a dormitory for its immigrant workers and now a five-star hotel.
