LPGA International (Hills course)

Est. 1997

LPGA International (Hills course): Located just outside Daytona Beach, one of Florida's busiest holiday and attraction destinations, LPGA International is home to two excellent and contrasting championship golf courses. The more open and forgiving character of the Jones course (formerly called the Champions) might appeal to big-hitting fans of links golf. The Hills course (formerly called the Legends), on the other hand, will fully test your game in a classically Floridian wetland and pine forested environment.

Elegantly and challengingly laid out by Arthur Hills, and with barely any housing along the way, the Hills course takes you on a wonderful journey into the natural forest. The relatively flat, good-width fairways are often flanked by small lakes and wetland areas. Attractive mounding and excellent bunkering also underscore the need for accuracy and good course management. A strategy based around power and length may come asunder in the dense foliage and/or water that lines most of the holes.

On the front-nine a stunning trio commences with the par-4 6th, which tightly hugs a small lake. Next up is a good-length par-3 over wetlands, which leads onto the stunning lakeside par-5 8th. The back-nine loop also has its fair share of excellence. Perhaps the par-3 15th, played to a backdrop of tall pine trees with an attractive lake on your right, steals the show.

In its delightfully natural setting of lakes, wetlands and pine forest, this top-quality golf course is both a joy and a challenge to play - no matter how many times you play it!
