Ever wonder where the pros play? TPC Potomac at Avenel Farm is that place. It is a private golf club in Potomac Maryland. This club sits northwest of Washington D.C. It offers a pure golf experience.
TPC Potomac has a rich history. It has hosted several PGA tour events. The Kemper Open, FBR Capital Open, and Booz Allen Classic were all held here. More recently, the Quicken Loans National came to TPC Potomac in 2017 and 2018. In 2022, the Wells Fargo Championship was played here.
Originally opened in 1986, the course faced criticism early on. People found fault with its design. Flooding and drainage problems were common. Turfgrass issues also plagued the greens. This led to unsatisfactory tournament conditions. Many top players avoided the Kemper/Booz Allen tournament. It became a “B” event.
But TPC Potomac didn’t stay down. A $32 million renovation began in 2007. The entire course was reshaped. It became a 7,139-yard course at par 70. Rock Run Creek was expanded and cleaned up. The sixth hole was changed. The ninth hole was rebuilt with a new green. The old 10th and 11th holes combined into the new tenth. A new practice facility and short game area were added. Clubhouse renovations also took place.
More improvements came in November 2015. The 7th and 16th greens were renovated. This created additional hole locations. Bent grass chipping and collection areas appeared around several greens. Fairways were widened. The on-deck putting green was quadrupled in size.
TPC Potomac offers an unmatched golf experience. The course showcases the natural rolling terrain. Bentgrass tees, fairways, and greens are featured. Fescue grasses and Scottish-style bunkering add to the challenge.
TPC Potomac isn’t just about golf. The spacious clubhouse has dining areas. There is also a full-service golf shop. Updated locker rooms are available. Boardrooms and banquet spaces suit social and business gatherings.
