Centrally located in Palm Beach County, Florida, this semi-private club offers the elegance and comfort of a private resort in a picturesque, warm and friendly environment open to the public year round.

Originally designed by Tom Fazio for major tournament play, the Champion Course was redesigned by Jack Nicklaus in 1990. Although the Champion Course has generous landing areas and spacious and accepting greens, golfers are presented with course management challenges throughout their rounds. The Champion has five sets of teeing areas, so golfers can choose the yardage that best accommodates their playing abilities. This makes the course enjoyable for golfers of all skill levels. The first hole runs along the adjoining driving range, with a practice green located next to the first tee for that last-minute warm up. The 15th, 16th and 17th holes - which, along with the 11th hole, have been designated as "The Bear Trap" by Nicklaus -- statistically have all been among The Top 10 Most Difficult Holes on the Senior PGA Tour.
The Champion Golf Course has a distinguished place in Major Championship history. It was the site of the 1983 Ryder Cup Matches; the 1987 PGA Championship; the 1982-2000 PGA Seniors' Championships; and the 1981, 1982, and 1994-2000 PGA Junior Championships. PGA National's Champion Course is now home to the PGA TOUR's Honda Classic. The Championship Course is dedicated to Jack Nicklaus, in honor of a man whose commitment to golf has been an inspiration to the game, and personifies the high standard of excellence we associate with the "Player of the Century."

Designed by Karl Litten, the Estate Course has an enjoyable mix of challenging and docile holes. The second-shortest course at PGA National Resort & Spa will test golfers with its formidable placement of fairway bunkers and water hazards. Generous fairways will often make stray tee shots more manageable -- and the large, inviting greens help keep the course fun for the high handicapper. Long, accurate tee shots are required on several holes, in order to more easily negotiate hazards in front of the greens. The homes along the golf course are set further back, contributing to the overall open feel of the course.
Located 5 miles west of the main facility, the Estate Course is nestled in a small, peaceful community, creating a more relaxing experience. The Florida pines, subtropical foliage, and beautiful lakes that blanket the course comprise a wildlife haven that can be seen throughout your round.

Designed by Tom Fazio, the Haig Course was the first to open for play at PGA National Resort & Spa. Fazio's goal in designing the Haig was to create an outstanding quality course that would be playable for all types of golfers. The major design factor relates to the location of water hazards. There are no crossing water hazards -- which means the golfer always has the option of playing around a water hazard rather than over it. This eliminates a major obstacle for the high handicap golfer. At 6,806 yards, the Haig is the second-longest course at PGA National and has the highest difficulty rating from the standard men's (white) and ladies' (red) tees. It requires a combination of length and accuracy off the tee to set up your approach to these tricky greens. Both the 9th and 18th holes return to the clubhouse area ... allowing play to start from the 1st and 10th tees, making the Haig Course a convenient choice for 9-hole play in the afternoon.
The 1st, 8th, and 9th holes surround the Haig Driving Range -- which has several practice greens, bunkers, and chipping areas. The Haig Range is also the location of one of the nation's most comprehensive golf schools: the Golf Digest Academy. The Haig Course was named in honor of Walter Hagen, known affectionately as "The Haig." Hagen became an international legend through his unparalleled style and his accomplishments in golf, including five PGA Championships.

Designed by Arnold Palmer, the Palmer Course is the most forgiving for the "grip it and rip it" style of play. The open fairways and larger greens are quite accommodating, and the golfer is not overly penalized for missing the fairway or primary rough. There is a considerable amount of fairway mounding throughout the course, so the golfer is often challenged with uneven lies. The Palmer has a great series of finishing holes -- with the 18th hole being one of the most difficult and picturesque par 5s on the property.
The Palmer is named for its gallery-pleasing designer, Arnold Palmer ... who attacked golf courses with an unharnessed fury. His character, charisma, and legendary charges won him a legion of followers -- known as "Arnie's Army" -- throughout the world. The Palmer is dedicated in honor of Arnold Palmer, the leader of an "army" of golf enthusiasts. His tireless effort to his fans and the game of golf is as legendary as his skill on the course.

Designed by Tom Fazio, the Squire is the shortest and the most exacting of the courses at PGA National Resort & Spa. Tom Fazio referred to the Squire as "the thinking man's course". The golfer is required to test his or her accuracy with fairway woods and long irons from many tees -- and the smaller greens demand precise iron shots. In addition, the Squire has several doglegs to test the longer hitter's control. Success or failure on the doglegs will make or break your round. The Squire has more natural environmental areas than the Haig, the General, and the Champion. Teeming with native vegetation, these areas attract an abundance of wildlife. The 5th hole runs along part of the wilderness preserve, which borders the west side of the PGA National community.
The Squire is named after the immortal Gene Sarazen. Nicknamed "The Squire," he is as much a part of golf history as anyone who has played the game. He was a true competitor who became the first person to win the professional "Grand Slam" - the U.S. Open, British Open, PGA Championship, and the Masters. His actions on and off the course were always exemplary, and he stands today as a credit to all who have enjoyed the game.

| | | _ | | _ | | | The course plays a demanding 7,051 yards from the championship tees but offers four additional sets of tees at 6,723, 6,302, 5,494 and 4,863 yards respectively, giving players the chance to bite off as much course as their game will enjoy!
One very interesting aspect of the design is that not only does the course get longer as you move back in tees, but the shot angles also get increasingly challenging. This means that the good player not only has further to hit but must also place the ball more accurately on the fairway in order to set himself up for his next shot. In this regard, Sanford has succeeded in designing The Links at Madison Green as a course that can accommodate all players. A young teen, his father, his mother and even his grandfather playing together from four different sets of tees will all experience a fair challenge for their respective games that still remains enjoyable!
