PGA National Resort is Home to Five of the Top Florida Golf Courses

We’ve been waiting for you, champ. The challenges, the history, the legends – they’re all still here. (Witness them come together during the PGA TOUR’s Honda Classic each spring.) But we’ve refined our game for you – updating all of our championship golf courses with new turf, rebuilt bunkers, expanded tee and green complexes; and reinventing The Haig as The Fazio with a modernized layout and so much more. When it’s time to refine your game, the PGA National Golf Academy ranks as one of the top golf schools in Florida. More than a resort golf experience, PGA National Resort is a championship golf experience.

Named after the immortal Gene Sarazen, the first golfer ever to win the professional Grand Slam, "the thinking man's course" is the ultimate test of accuracy and precision. Designed by Tom and George Fazio, The Squire is the shortest and most exacting of the courses at PGA National Resort. Accuracy with fairway woods and long irons is tested on many tees, and the new smaller "Emerald Bermuda" greens demand precise approach shots. Several doglegs provide a risk/reward opportunity for any longer hitter as well. The Squire is surrounded by natural areas teeming with vegetation and wildlife – the 5th hole even runs along part of a wilderness preserve, which borders the west side of the PGA National community.

Last renovated: Fall 2012 (new turf, rebuilt bunkers, expanded tee and green complexes)
