The Champion Course, An Unparalleled South Florida Golf Course
Originally designed by Tom Fazio for major tournament play, the Champion Course at PGA National Resort & Spa was redesigned by
Jack Nicklaus in 1990. Although the Champion Course has generous landing areas and spacious and accepting greens, golfers are
presented with course management challenges throughout their rounds. This South Florida golf resort course has five sets of
teeing areas, so golfers can choose the yardage that best accommodates their playing abilities. This makes the course enjoyable
for golfers of all skill levels. The first hole runs along the adjoining driving range, with a practice green located next to the
first tee for that last-minute warm up. The 15th, 16th and 17th holes of our South Florida golf course - which, along with the 11th
hole, have been designated as "The Bear Trap" by Nicklaus -- statistically have all been among The Top 10 Most Difficult Holes on
the Senior PGA Tour.
The Champion Golf Course has a distinguished place in Major Championship history. It was the site of the 1983 Ryder Cup Matches;
the 1987 PGA Championship; the 1982-2000 PGA Seniors' Championships; and the 1981, 1982, and 1994-2000 PGA Junior Championships.
PGA National's Champion Course is now home to the PGA TOUR's Honda Classic.
The Championship Course is dedicated to Jack Nicklaus, in honor of a man whose commitment to golf has been an inspiration to the
game, and personifies the high standard of excellence we associate with the "Player of the Century."
