Go for the golf, stay for the Bieber watching.
Yes, Justin Bieber was at Quail yesterday with his buddy Bubba Watson. The Charlotte internet melted in excitement. As did I.
I'm sure Erica wasn't alone with her tweet yesterday, "Justin Bieber is at the PGA Championship in Charlotte. I had tickets to go today and didn't bc of the rain… I hate myself."
You'll know if your basic friend attended, because they'll be the person who takes a Snap/Instagram in front of this oversized Wanamaker Trophy upon entry into Quail Hollow.
If you're like me and hate dealing with parking, Uber there. You'll need to type in 8801 Park Road, Charlotte, NC as your destination in the Uber app and your driver will take you to the designated Uber PUDO (pick-up/drop-off) lot. From there, you take a 5-minute shuttle from this spot to the course. Here's the full PGA Tour Spectator Guide.
Honestly, I rank the Quail Hollow Club pool last out of the "Big 4" club pools: Carmel, Charlotte and Myers Park. For more analysis, Top 10 country clubs in Charlotte, ranked (including pricing data).
It looks like it's about 200 yards just to make it to where the fairway starts. A 524-yard Par 4 is a legit opening hole. Fun fact (that I'm sure Quail members didn't like: The course was closed for 89 days during construction).
Liquor drinks will run you about $14. Agenda recommends a Bloody Mary to get things started.
- $11 Large Bud Light, Budweiser, Goose Island, Stella Artois, Shocktop
- $10 Wine, Chardonnay or Cab.
- $9 Regular Sized Bud Light, Budweiser, Michelob Ultra.
- $9 Spiked Seltzer (who orders this?)
Craft beer lovers can find Sugar Creek Brewery, Appalachian Mountain Brewery, Catawba Brewery and Southern Tier Brewing on the course. Also, keep an eye out for the draft and craft beer self-serve "Tilt Your Own Tap" locations throughout the course.

The Merchandise Tent is massive.
Classy, right? Here's the Polo I also grabbed if you like looking at Polos.
