Baytree National
Baytree National Golf Links: Few courses in central Florida weave their way as attractively and naturally through a residential development as Baytree National. Also flanking many of the excellently crafted holes are large, preserved expanses of woodland and wetland. When housing is present, it usually borders just one side of a hole, often tucked away across a small lake or pond, or set well behind the treeline.
Many lakes and ponds threaten alongside the layout's gently undulating, mounded fairways. Water also menacingly lurks beside several greens, not least at the excellent collection of par-5s. Rather than being defended by ponds, the four par-3 holes require you to negotiate a mix of wetland, stylish bunkering and sandy waste areas en route to reaching the safety of the subtly sloping greens.
Among Baytree National's attractive and excellently maintained holes, the closing par-4 18th is one of the toughest. Its green hangs out over a pond, while substantial bunkering defends the right side of the putting surface - a great closing hole.
A bit of traffic noise from I-95 on a few front-nine holes is the only potential (and minor) distraction you'll encounter on this handsome, predominantly natural, and stylish course.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.

Built in 1992, the championship course at Baytree National was designed by Gary Player. One of the greatest golfers of all time, the "Black Knight" won 24 times on the PGA Tour, with a raft of wins also coming on other international tours. He can also boast nine major titles, including a career slam of all four majors ... (as of 2023) a feat he shares with only Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, Ben Hogan and Gene Sarazen.

The Masters: The 88th Masters Tournament at Augusta National sees LIV golfer Jon Rahm defend his title against the world’s best. Pressing hard will be world No.1 and 2022 champion Scottie Scheffler and world No.2 Rory McIlroy (April 11-14).
Chevron Championship: the women’s major championship season gets underway for the second year at its new Carlton Woods home outside Houston, Texas. World No.2 Lilia Vu defends (April 18-21).
Nelly Korda: records a perfect start to 2024 with five wins out of her last five starts on the LPGA Tour. Winning the Chevron Championship also brought the second major championship win of her career.
Scottie Scheffler: narrowly missed out on matching Nelly Korda's five wins in five starts, when he placed second at the Houston Open. Either side of that, he won The Arnold Palmer, The Players, and then The Masters and The Heritage.
Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.
Jim Fazio's original layout was much changed to create a modern Ryder Cup course ... now one of the Eternal City's (and Italy's) most revered.
