The Course
This course
weaves through lakes and protected wetlands and features well-mounded
fairways and large, undulating greens. Water hazards come into play
on fifteen holes. The back nine is the most challenging part of
the course. The signature hole is #15, a 438-yard, par 4, which
is said to be the fourth hardest hole on the Senior PGA Tour.
