#4: Firestone Country Club

South Course

Location: Akron, Ohio

Par: 70

Yardage: 7,400 yards

Years back, this course quickly became one of my favorites as I began watching the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational. From there it has become one of the courses that I make sure to tune into every year and hope to one day get a chance to play.

Firestone has an incredible 54-hole setup that boasts three full 18-hole courses. They are split into the South Course, the North Course, and the West Course, the South course being the longest and the one used for PGA Tour events. Since 1962, the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational has been at Firestone every year. Additionally, the course has also hosted three major championships, all three being PGA Championships. However, the last time it hosted one of those was 1975.
