Prince William County: Destination Golf!

While Prince William County is a birthplace to many, it’s a little known fact that it is the birthplace to one of the biggest tournaments in the golfing world – The President’s Cup!

Since the inaugural event in 1994, the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club (“RTJ”) in Prince William County, Virginia has been one of only three US venues for the President’s Cup, to date.   Designed by Robert Trent Jones, Sr., RTJ is his self-proclaimed “masterpiece”, a par-72, 7,425 yard course that hosted the Presidents’ Cup four times – 1994, 1996, 2000 and 2005.

Today a new chapter in RTJ’s storied history will begin, as it is the premier golf destination for the 2015 Quicken Loans National.    In less than ten days, some of the best golfers in the world will descend on RTJ in Prince William County to compete for the Quicken Loans National $6.7 million purse.

And while the Quicken Loans National PGA TOUR will welcome 120 top golfers, including Tiger Woods and Justin Rose, highlighting each golf player’s play by play, we decided to highlight Prince William County’s own play book on golf.   Here’s what we found out:

Prince William County boasts 21 different golf courses county-wide.  It is also home to some of the finest golf courses in the Greater Washington, DC metropolitan area, according to the Washington Business Journal Book of Lists.  Six of Prince William County’s prime golf courses were rated in the Top 25, which include Old Hickory Golf Club (#5), Robert Trent Jones Golf Club (#6), Stonewall Golf Club (#8), Bristow Manor Golf Club (# 11), Dominion Valley Country Club, (#15) and Piedmont Club (#20). 

The first publicly accessible Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course in the Greater Washington, DC metropolitan area opened in Dumfries, Virginia at the new Potomac Shores Golf Club.  Newly opened, the Potomac Shores quickly ranked in Golf Digest’s Top 10 best new golf courses in the country.

Throughout the County, these professionally designed courses are set within some of the most desirable gated communities in the region.  Residents’ also enjoy a host of surrounding amenities – walking trails, fitness centers, tennis courts, pools, all nestled among some of Virginia’s finest natural landscapes.

In both the eastern and western end of the County, there are Prince William County operated courses, public daily-fee courses and private club courses.

Inspired by local physicians who were among the nation’s first to adopt the concierge medicine model, Northern Virginia is now a hub for its surging popularity. These leading physicians are redefining the patient experience with same-day appointments, direct availability, unhurried visits, and deeply personalized care:

After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up. As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”

Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
