As the PGA of America holds its Annual Meeting, National Awards and Hall of Fame Ceremony this week at its home in Frisco, TX, there’s no better moment to examine what makes the PGA Frisco campus work. Beyond championship golf, the facility offers multiple ways to experience the game, whether you’re a serious competitor or picking up a club for the first time. The alternative components matter most.
A New Vision for the Game
Golf’s transformation isn’t happening on traditional 18-hole courses. Across the country, alternative venues are redefining the game: short courses, adventure golf facilities, lighted par-3 layouts, massive putting greens. This shift toward casual, accessible experiences has driven the sport’s recent popularity surge, attracting people who might never play a championship course.
Nowhere demonstrates this trend better than Frisco, Texas. Championship courses still demand reverence and four-hour commitments. PGA Frisco is rewriting the rules about who gets to enjoy golf and how. These aren’t your grandfather’s facilities, which is exactly the point.
