The Legends and The Champions Golf Courses - Daytona Golf
Situated on a former pine tree farm just off exit 88 on I-95 about a half hour from Daytona Beach Shores is LPGA International, a golf facility that features two excellently conditioned courses, The Legends Course and The Champions Course. Though it has LPGA in the title, the facility is neither owned nor operated by the LPGA, whose headquarters is about a mile away on the same site.
LPGA International - Champions
Buena Vista Hospitality has a joint partnership with the city of Daytona Beach,
Consolidated Tomoka and the LPGA to manage LPGA International. Consolidated Tomoka,
a local development company which is developing the site with upscale homes, also plans to
build a hotel and resort on the property not far from the permanent golf clubhouse, which is
scheduled to be completed in 2000.
Opened in 1995, Champions is designed by Rees Jones and features his signature high mounding along a few fairways. Site of an LPGA tournament in the spring, Champions is flat and treeless, with a few lakes and modest sized greens which are receptive to both high-pitched and bump-and-run approaches. Homes line a few holes along the edges of the course, but on most of the course they are out of sight. With virtually no forced carries and only a few marshes, Champions appeals to the casual player, though accomplished golfers will enjoy this one from the back at about 7,100 yards.
LPGA International - Legends
Opened in October 1998, The Legends, designed by Arthur Hills, is a terrific golf course that winds through
tall pines and over and around environmental areas and ponds. The mix of short and long, straight and doglegged,
and flat and elevated holes is laid out in a rhythm that is never boring. More difficult for its occasional forced carries,
the course should appeal to the low handicappers. Casual golfers will welcome the generous landing areas on most holes,
however.
