2025 TEETH OF THE DOG® RESTORATION PROJECT
LA ROMANA, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC – Since it’s opening over 50 years ago, Teeth of the Dog® has become widely known as Pete Dye’s masterpiece and has been long considered the No. 1 course in the Caribbean. Dye’s genius design hallmarks are all showcased on the dramatic seaside layout: railroad ties, vast waste areas, peninsula greens and tees, hand-sculpted putting surfaces and a unique assortment of pot bunkers. The seven exceptional oceanfront holes are astoundingly beautiful, causing Dye to famously quip: “I created 11 holes and God created seven.”
Starting in January 2025, an exciting regeneration project will begin to update Pete’s legendary course with an assortment of enhancements including the re-grassing of Teeth of the Dog with Dynasty Paspalum, new state-of-the-art turf on the tee boxes, fairways and greens, three inches of sand will be added to the fairways before seeding for improved playability and irrigation, along with other updates to the bunkers and cart paths.
The grand reopening of the Teeth of the Dog is scheduled for December 2025.
