Which tourney and course is it??

This golf tournament happens once a year. It is the very first major and all the top players attend this top tournament. This major is held normally around the weekend of April 12th. The golf course that it is played on is considered to be one of the most prestigious golf courses in the entire world. Each year there is some type of history made, whether it is the lowest score ever seen on this course or the record amounts of hole in ones in the weekend, it always happens. The fairways are lined with huge oak trees and the fairways are extremely narrow. There is famous bridge that is called the Hogan Bridge, which is named after one of the greatest golfers of all time Ben Hogan. The rough surrounding the fairways is typically around four and a half to five inches long. The putting greens roll about twelve point five on the stimp meter. A stimp meter is a measuring device that judges how fast the putting greens are rolling. Every hole on this golf course has name that represents a different type of flower. Nearing the end of the weekend the grounds crew that runs this golf course must begin to water the greens because they are becoming two difficult for the professionals of the PGA tour. This golf course is only open four out of the twelve months of the year and has only thirty members who are allowed to play this course. The waiting list to become a member at this course is over thirty years long. This course is one of the toughest courses that the professionals play all year. The greens are lightning fast, the fairways are narrow, the rough is thick, and the competition is fierce. Do you know what golf course and tournament I am describing?
