HISTORY: Tom Fazio has designed hundreds of courses around the United States
and the world. In fact, he has 13 venues rated in the latest rankings by Golf
Digest among America's 100 Greatest Golf Courses. Wade Hampton Golf Club,
Victoria National and the incomparable Shadow Creek are just some of the
marvels that Fazio has crafted.
In 1988, Fazio completed work on a Georgia "Peach," located north of Atlanta
and south of Chattanooga, Tennessee. The Farm Golf Club is situated in the
hills of a little town called Rocky Face, just due west of the "Carpet Capital
of the World," Dalton, Georgia. The Farm was the first course built by Fazio
in the state.
History buffs are certainly more familiar with the area than golf enthusiasts,
as The Battle of Rocky Face took place in 1864 led by Union General William
Tecumseh Sherman. Although cries that the "South will rise again" can be
heard, the main talk around town is about the sensational course that Fazio
designed.
The Carpet Capital Collegiate Tournament has been held at The Farm since its
inception in 1989. Past team champions include six-time winner Georgia Tech,
four-time champion Clemson and two-time victors Florida and Georgia. Even more
impressive is the list of medalists at this tournament. PGA Tour players
Stewart Cink, Tim Clark, Lucas Glover, D.J. Trahan, Bryce Molder and Bill Haas
have all earned individual honors.
