Course Information
The South course, designed by PGA Tour star Tom Lehman, boasts the largest elevation change of any hole in Florida (hole #11). The course features tight fairways lined with majestic oak trees and many natural water hazards. Due to the South course's challenging play and natural beauty, it has hosted The PGA Tour Qualifying School since 2000. In addition, each year the South course is a US Open and US Women's Open qualifying site and is also home to the University of South Florida Division One Spring Invitational.
