Detroit Golf Club’s courses, site of the 2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic on the PGA Tour, were designed by legendary architect Donald Ross and opened in 1916.
The Rocket Mortgage Classic is played on a combination course of the club’s two layouts, the North and the South. The tournament layout starts on No. 8 of the North Course, then plays No. 9 of the North. Players then tackle what is normally No. 1 of the South Course before teeing off on what is normally No. 2 of the North and playing the next five holes in order.
For the hole maps shown below, the front nine includes a hole number in a red circle, indicating that hole’s position for the Rocket Mortgage Classic.
The back nine is the same as usual for the North, playing in order from No. 10 through 18.
The combined layout will play to 7,370 yards with a par of 72 for this week’s tournament.
