Devil's Pulpit Golf Association - Canada

Devil's Pulpit Golf Association consists of two courses-the Devil's Pulpit and the Devil's Paintbrush-built in the Caledon Hills 35 miles northwest of Toronto. Both courses were developed by Chris Haney and Scott Abbott, the inventors of the Trivial Pursuit board game. Although only three miles apart and both designed by Michael Hurzdan and Dana Fry, the courses have entirely different characters, representing the yin and yang of golf course architecture. The Devil's Pulpit, opened in 1990, is a highly sculpted, more traditional parkland course. Hurzdan and Fry moved 1.7 million cubic yards of earth to create the course, including 300,000 cubic yards on the first hole alone, where a pond was built to create a dramatic tee shot from the elevated tee. The Paintbrush, on the other hand, opened in 1992, is laid out on an exposed, treeless bluff, its rumpled fairways fringed with brown native fescue grasses. An authentic Scottish-style links, there are plenty of blind shots, sprawling, shapeless bunkers lined with wooden slats, and an eighth hole that features the stone ruins of an old barn and a 17-foot-high sod wall bunker. The Devil's Pulpit is named after a rock formation seen from the seventh tee. The Devil's Paintbrush is a small flower found on the course, commonly named orange hawkweed.

Mout Tremblant Golf Resort - Canada

The Mont Tremblant Resort is set in the Laurentian Mountains of Quebec. While the resort is best known for skiing, it has two superb golf courses, Le Geant (the Giant) and Le Diable (the Devil). Le Diable, opened in 1998, was designed by Michael Hurzdan and Dana Fry, and features flamboyant red-tinged waste bunkers on the course carved from the pine forest. In 1999, Le Diable hosted the Canadian Skins Game with Mike Weir, Fred Couples, John Daly, and David Duval competing. Opened in 1995, Le Geant was designed by Canadian architect Thomas McBroom, with fairways cradled by the surrounding Laurentians.
