2. The Course: The Big Ten Championship will take place at the Galloway National Golf Club in Galloway, New Jersey. The 7,111-yard course, designed by architect Tom Fazio, will be played as a Par 71. Opened in 1995, the club overlooks the New Jersey shoreline and is known for its dramatic contour changes, ideal soil and lush pine forest. Galloway National Golf Club has hosted numerous championships for the New Jersey State Golf Association, Golf Association of Philadelphia, NCAA and USGA, proving its title as a championship golf course.

Five players will represent Wisconsin each day, with the top four scores of each round counting towards the team score. Teams are allowed to sub in a player after each round, with the player's score only counting towards the team score and not the individual.
