PGA National - The Champion Course

  • This famous and emblematic course has wide fairways and Tifeagle greens. Its demanding layout permanently demands challenging shots, and that's why it turns out to be a difficult stop for the best PGA Tour Pros during the Honda Classic. Especially in the dangerous "bear trap", which is how the 3-hole straight from 15 to 17 is known. For all this, the Champion is a "must" that attracts thousands of golfers every year.
