Welcome to Congressional Country Club...
The home of 5 Major Championships and the PGA Tours annual Quicken Loans National...
The famed Blue course is characterised by rolling terrain, tree-lined fairways, wide and challenging greens and strategically placed water hazards.
Originally laid out by Devereux Emmet in 1924 and redesigned several times over the years by Donald Ross (30's), Robert Trent Jones (50's) and Rees Trent Jones (90's).
Rated America's number 1 member-owned, private club.
***NOW IN TGC 2019***
Enjoy!!

I was going to make a well thought review of the course. But as I was playing, I kept thinking "woooow" and "wait, place the ball there or there". And blaming me for misjudging all those sidebreakers for just a couple of inches. Really enjoyed the course Rod, a true test and a greatly done job.
I just can say thank you for bringing this gem to life

The par threes are amazing, and 18 may be best finishing hole in TGC.

I really enjoyed the latest test version, will put this on the list to play!
I thought it was worthwhile noting that Rod created this on PS4... None of the fancy window overlay business and he had to work at PS4 GNCD speeds... Respect!

This is just such a great re-creation of Congressional.....IMHO, if you don't play it...YOU...are seriously missing out.....Again...........JMO....... ...sure Thanks Vic, I played with the lighting angles on all 4 days so each hole on one of the days will have the light in the rights direction for some nice pics, hole 18 and clubhouse backdrop for example look neat on the saturday and Sunday versions and hole 10 on Thursday for example, really happy with results, had to massage some trees to get shadows out the way but if you can find the adjustments I'd be surprised, a couple of obvious omissions but most required a tad of shrinking to get out of the road, would love to see a nice scenic pic looking down the fairway towards clubhouse on 18 to use as a screensaver and then one looking off the patio looking over 10 and 18, if only I had photoshop or some editing software to enhance them a little too, I'm loving the Sunday version, so many neat back stops behind the pins, really setup for scoring the Sunday pins, cheers again Vic |

To all that have ventured out onto the course so far I have to say a big thankyou for enjoying this course as much as I do, it's been really satisfying seeing the comments and praise roll in. I'm glad I was able to recreate this great layout in game for us all to enjoy, so thanks again!
I've since published a showcase edition featuring holes 9,10&18 and also just completed the ProTee edition for the simulator guys!! Cheers
