Sports Innerview with Ann Liguori

About

How did Pete Dye turn a stretch of Dominican coastline into one of the most celebrated courses in Caribbean golf? In this Golf Innerview with Ann Liguori, Ann visits Casa de Campo Resort & Villas to hear the story from Gilles Gagnon, the resort’s director of golf emeritus, who has spent more than four decades at Casa de Campo and knew Dye well.

Gagnon shares stories about Dye’s influence on the resort, how Casa de Campo pays tribute to him, and how Jerry Pate and his team restored Teeth of the Dog, the famed course with seven holes along the Caribbean Sea. Ann and Gilles also explore the history of the 7,000-acre resort and what visitors can experience beyond the fairways, from polo and horseback riding to the marina and Altos de Chavón.
