About this episode

In February 2020, Garrett Morrison interviewed 1976 U.S. Open champion Jerry Pate about his win at the 1982 Players Championship, the first Players held at TPC Sawgrass. Jerry talked about his first impressions of the Pete Dye-designed Stadium Course, his post-victory leap into the pond next to the 18th green, and his fond memories of his friends Pete and Alice Dye. We used excerpts from Jerry and Garrett's conversation in our documentary podcast “<a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fried-egg-stories-rerelease-alligator-pit-making-tpc/id1131723994?i=1000511862549">Making TPC Sawgrass</a>.” Since it’s now the 40th anniversary of the '82 Players, we figured it was a good time to air the interview in full.
