The Course

French Lick Resort’s two headline courses hosted the trip. The individual championship played out on the Pete Dye Course — an 8,102-yard monster carved into a southern Indiana ridge with 200-foot elevation changes, widely regarded as one of the most difficult courses in the country. Team format sessions rounded out the trip on the resort’s classic 1917 Donald Ross Course, a shorter, more traditionally styled counterpart.

2024 Recap

Team Solids came to French Lick and never let up. Captain Cody Wacker’s squad dominated the opening day, taking 5 of 6 points, and while Friday’s best ball session split evenly at 3–3, Solids carried an 8–4 cushion into the weekend. A 3.5–2.5 win in Saturday’s Shamble/Scramble stretched the lead to 11.5–6.5 heading into singles.

Team Stripes made a real push, taking 3.5 of the first four singles points to cut the gap to 12–10, but it wasn’t enough to complete the comeback. Solids closed it out 16.5–13.5, sweeping Series II in two years. Kevin McCarthy went a perfect 4-0-0 on the week, with Jordan Higgins and Kyle Mahoney each posting 3-0-1.

Jesse Rhodebeck took the individual title wire-to-wire on what the group has called the toughest course the Cup has ever played — the Pete Dye Course’s brutal length and elevation. He was the only player under par in Round 1, built a 5-shot cushion by Round 2, and held on for a 5-shot win over Ben Rader and Will Nodo, claiming his first Bendelow Green Jacket.
