According to the TPC Sawgrass website, the design came by accident. The original design for the 17th was to be a simple par-3 green only partially surrounded by a lake. However, the soil surrounding the 17th consisted of sand, which is necessary to build a good golf course, but rare on the otherwise swampy property, and by the time the course was near completion all the sand had been dug from the area, leaving a large crater. Alice Dye suggested the Island Green concept, remembering another course with a similar green. Pete was not thrilled at the idea but went ahead with it, in the process creating one of golf's most recognizable holes. Because of its popularity among fans, NBC devotes 11 cameras to it during the tournament.[1]

a really cool story if you ever care to check it out. Dye's most famous hole and it was his wife who fixed the problem and turned it into 17
Its 100% bullshite, IMO.
Dye is always making crap up about his wife and how she's really the designer.
