==Golf course== The 18-hole championship course at Quail Hollow was designed by golf course architect [[George Cobb (golf)|George Cobb]] who designed several golf courses, primarily in the southeastern United States. Opened on June 3, 1961, it underwent a series of improvements, including modifications of several holes by [[Arnold Palmer]] in 1986, and a redesign by [[Tom Fazio]] in 1997, 2003, and from 2014 to 2016 in preparation for the PGA Championship.<ref name=OOBGOLF>{{cite web |url=http://www.oobgolf.com/courses/course/11068/Quail_Hollow_Country_Club.html |title=Quail Hollow Country Club |access-date=2008-03-29}}</ref> South of central Charlotte, the average [[elevation]] of the course is approximately {{convert|600|ft|round=5}} above [[sea level]].
