Definition: "TPC" stands for "Tournament Players Club." Golf courses with a TPC designation are owned by the PGA Tour. Some of the courses are private, some are daily fee or resort courses. All of them make a lot of money for the PGA Tour. The first TPC course was Sawgrass, which opened in 1980. TPC courses are now located all around the U.S., with more under development or in the planning stages. A list of TPC courses and a history of the TPC project can be found at www.tpc.com.
