The mission of “The Dye” is to honor the legacy of champion golfers and world-renowned course designers Pete & Alice Dye. The Dyes gave birth to Crooked Stick Golf Club in 1964 and made their home alongside its 18th fairway for many decades. To honor Pete and Alice, the Club’s membership has created this annual invitational event featuring an elite field of international junior players.
Our 2022 champions were Taylor Kehoe (Alice Dye Girl's Division) and Matt Moloney (Pete Dye Boy's Division).
For those of you who will be eligible for next year’s Dye Junior, we will open entries in late November and accept applications until the last weekend in February 2024.

Travel
Flying into Indianapolis, you will use the Indianapolis International Airport. It is located 25 miles southwest of the Crooked Stick Golf Club. The Golf Club sits on the Northside of Indianapolis about 30 minutes directly north of the downtown area.
Accommodations
Your options include private housing and/or a designated host hotel(s) near the Golf Club. Crooked Stick members will host players who request private housing. Crooked Stick Golf Club has arranged for blocks of rooms and rates for participants at local hotels and there are numerous other lodging options available in the area.​
Transportation
Transportation to and from the Golf Club for the tournament days is available for players staying in private housing. Rental cars can be arranged directly at the airport along with Uber rides if that is your choice.
Caddies
Players are allowed to carry their own clubs, use a pushcart (we have Sun Mountain Speed carts available at no cost), or use a caddie. We are encouraging players to have a sibling, parent, coach, etc. caddie for them. If you need a caddie, please contact Martha Faulconer and we will arrange for a local caddie for your round. It is the player's responsibility to pay their local caddie and the cost is $75 per round.
Practice Area Access
Players will have access to the Crooked Stick Golf Club practice areas from Sunday to Tuesday. If you are arriving in Indianapolis ahead of Sunday, our professional staff can assist in setting up play at other area golf courses to fit your travel schedule.
PLAYING CROOKED STICK
A player at Crooked Stick will find that no consecutive holes are laid out in the same direction, one must constantly adjust to wind from a different tack, long holes are followed by short holes, and shots calling for right-to-left flight are followed by shots requiring a left-to-right path. Pete and Alice Dye have designed Crooked Stick to test a player’s “poise, courage and intelligence,” as well as his or her skill. You can look ahead or look back and the natural beauty of each hole extends before you. But the more familiar you are with the course, the more you see what is waiting for you. It does not let up, and it never lets you down.
