Golf
Built for the Pros, Experienced by You
A Private Blaine, Minnesota Golf Course
Innovative design and a reverence for nature are the hallmarks of truly great golf courses, and TPC Twin Cities’ outstanding championship golf course is no exception.
Honored multiple times by Golf Digest magazine among the top 20 golf courses in Minnesota, TPC Twin Cities’ par-72, 7,468-yard championship golf course was designed by legendary golfer and golf course architect Arnold Palmer to blend seamlessly with the natural rolling terrain on the site of a former sod farm 15 miles north of Minneapolis/St. Paul. Collaborating with PGA TOUR player consultant and Minnesota native Tom Lehman, Palmer sculpted a serene masterpiece featuring Bentgrass tees, fairways and greens, native prairie grasses, picturesque wetlands and 27 bodies of water, all framed by stately stands of mature oak, spruce and pine trees. After the competitive enhancement project in 2018, the course will pay as a par-72 for our members and guests, and will play as a par 71 for the PGA TOUR players.
Palmer’s signature beach bunker on the 7th hole, elevated greens and four expansive native area bunkers add to the unique character and strategic diversity of the course, which many TOUR players consider the best layout and conditioned course on PGA TOUR. While challenging enough for the best players in the world during the 3M Open, multiple tees on each hole enable golfers of all abilities to enjoy the subtle nuances and intricate design features that have earned Palmer acclaim as one of the world’s most respected golf course architects.
Complementing the golf course is an expansive 27,000 square-foot, double-ended and double-tiered practice facility. The practice area includes over 12,000 square feet of putting greens. There are also bunker and short-game practice areas for members and guests to hone their skills.
ARCHITECT
An Award-Winning Arnold Palmer Design
Arnold Palmer, Architect
The name Arnold Palmer has become synonymous with the game of golf. Winner of the Donald Ross Award from the American Society of Golf Course Architects for his significant contributions to the game, Palmer was the first individual in the modern era to be both a tournament player and golf course architect.
During a historic career spanning more than 50 years, Arnold Palmer amassed 92 professional championships, including four Masters championships, two British Opens, the U.S. Open and 10 PGA TOUR Champions victories; played on six Ryder Cup teams; and won the Vardon Trophy for the lowest scoring average four times. His most prolific years were 1960-1963, when he won 29 PGA TOUR events in four seasons – earning him numerous accolades including “Sportsman of the Year” from Sports Illustrated and the coveted Hickok Athlete of the Year Award in 1960, as well as “Athlete of the Decade” from Associated Press. In 1967, he became the first man to reach $1 million in career earnings on the PGA TOUR.
On his way to becoming one of the greatest golfers of all time, “The King” – who competed in the Masters tournament an unprecedented 50 consecutive times – built up a wide fan base, often referred to as “Arnie’s Army.” In addition to being the recipient of virtually every national golf award ever bestowed, Palmer is credited with single-handedly helping to bring golf out of the elite country clubs and into the consciousness of mainstream America – leaving an indelible mark on the game of golf as well as an extraordinary legacy for future generations.
In 1971, while remaining a threat in professional golf, Palmer leveraged his knowledge and experience playing many of the best golf courses in the world to form Arnold Palmer Design Company, then known as Palmer Course Design, with his longtime friend, Ed Seay. Since that time, Arnold Palmer Design Company has created more than 300 of the world’s most eminent golf layouts including Bay Hill Club & Lodge in Orlando, Florida; The Tradition Club in La Quinta, California; Ireland’s K Club, host to the 2006 Ryder Cup; and Spring Island in Okatie, South Carolina, in addition to modifications to Bay Hill Club and Lodge, home of the Arnold Palmer Invitational and Laurel Valley in Pennsylvania, which was recently ranked one of the top 50 golf courses in the country.
Palmer is intimately involved with every project, applying a design philosophy that aims to “utilize the natural environment with a light-handed approach to design great golf courses,” and to “maintain an ecologically sound environment that brings tradition and an extraordinary experience to the game, connecting golfers to the land.”
Tom Lehman, Player Consultant
A native of Alexandria, Minnesota, Tom Lehman began his career on the Nationwide Tour and then PGA TOUR after garnering All American honors as a member of the University of Minnesota golf team. His performance during the 1990’s propelled him to the upper echelon in professional golf, winning five PGA TOUR events including the 1996 British Open; four Nationwide Tour events; and two international victories. Among his many professional achievements, Lehman was a member of three Presidents Cup teams; two Ryder Cup teams – including 2006, when he served as Captain; the 1996 World Cup team; and two Dunhill Cup teams.
Beginning in 1996, Lehman used his experience on the PGA TOUR and his eye for design to collaborate on projects with many top golf course designers, including Michael Hurdzan, Dana Fry, Arnold Palmer, the PGA TOUR Design Group and John Fought. While working with Fought, Lehman met Chris Brands, who had spent the previous 13 years collaborating with Fought. In 2003, Lehman worked with Brands to establish Lehman Design Group. Since that time, the company has designed a portfolio full of award-winning layouts including Washington National in Seattle, WA; Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club’s Ghost Creek and Witch Hollow courses near Portland, OR; Arroyo Trabuco in Mission Viejo, CA; Somerby Golf Club in Byron, MN, site of the Nationwide Tour’s Rochester Area Charities Showdown at Somerby; and The Gallery Club in Tucson, AZ, co-designed with John Fought, host of the World Golf Championships – Accenture Match Play Championship.
A longtime philanthropist, Lehman helped to create the Dayton’s Challenge (now the Marshall Field’s Challenge) benefiting the Lehman Family/Children’s Cancer Research Fund at the University of Minnesota – a fully endowed fund dedicated to finding a cure for childhood cancers. In recognition for his many charitable activities, Lehman was awarded the Byron Nelson Prize by the Salesmanship Club of Dallas at the 2007 EDS Byron Nelson Championship – awarded to a person or organization in the golf world who best exemplifies the ideals of “giving back” that Byron Nelson personified.

Featured Holes
For a Memorable Golf Experience
Hole #6
A classic risk/reward, this 594-yard par-5 double dogleg challenges golfers with more strategic options than perhaps any other hole on the course. A tee shot played over any portion of the deep fescue grasses framing the right side will shorten the hole significantly. Any successful approach played over the pond should safely find the wide putting green.
Hole #7
Dubbed “Tom’s Thumb” in reference to PGA TOUR player and course consultant Tom Lehman, the green on this 381-yard par-4 may be reached with a long and accurate tee shot that carries the lake on the left side and avoids the massive bunkers short and right of the green. A conservative tee shot into the fairway will often render an approach of less than 100 yards to the two-tiered green.
Hole #9
From tee to green, this 502-yard par-4 is one of the most difficult to gauge but one of the most satisfying holes to conquer. Golfers who successfully find the fairway with the tee shot must still navigate large mounding to the left of a sloping green, which is shaped around the lake’s edge. This approach shot will challenge even the finest long iron players.
Hole #14
At 437 yards, this sweeping dogleg-left around Cavner’s Cove – home to two large Loons, the state bird – is a favorite among TPC Twin Cities members, guests and tournament galleries. A successful tee shot along the right side of the fairway will leave most golfers with a simpler shot into the unguarded front right portion of the green.
