The Course

About Trump National Doral — Blue Monster

The Blue Monster is Dick Wilson's 1961 masterpiece, Gil Hanse-renovated in 2015 to restore the wide-open strategic angles that defined the WGC-Cadillac Championship for decades. Water comes into play on 17 of 18 holes; the finishing stretch from 16 through 18 remains one of the most pressure-tested closes on any tour-caliber course in Florida.

History

Trump National Doral — Blue Monster — History

The Blue Monster opened in 1961 to a Dick Wilson design and hosted a PGA Tour stop from the 1960s through 2006, then the WGC-Cadillac Championship from 2007 to 2016. Gil Hanse re-sculpted every hole in a 2014 renovation. Its water-lined par-4 18th is among the game's most demanding closing holes.

Design

Trump National Doral — Blue Monster — Design

Dick Wilson's original from the early 1960s, and the best-known course in Miami. Successive architects have kept it current -- Raymond Floyd, then a Gil Hanse rebuild in the mid-2010s -- but the character has held: long fairways, undulating greens, deep rough, and water and bunkering placed so that distance alone will not get you round. It is a course that asks for strategy and length together. The 18th, with its trademark fountain, has been named among the top 100 holes in the world.

What Sets It Apart

Why Play Trump National Doral — Blue Monster
