Why it’s a grail

Private club in Marietta, GA, best known as the longtime host of the PGA Tour's Atlanta Classic (~1967-1996) and the site of the inaugural 1974 Tournament Players Championship won by Jack Nicklaus. A historically significant strong-regional course rather than a current national-ranking layout; a 2022 Beau Welling remodel referenced the original design plans.

I've been here twice in the last year. It's not the kind of place that's on my normal stomping grounds. Both times was for awards ceremonies. They were catered by the club. I have to say that both events were incredible. The staff, the food, and the facilitie
