ChampionsGate Golf Club - International
Rating Snapshot
About
ChampionsGate Golf Resort, an un-matched golf facility for world-class golf, offers 36 holes designed by International golf champion Greg Norman and is the World Headquarters of David Leadbetter Golf Academy. Located just 15 minutes from Walt Disney World and Universal Studios Champions has two excellent and very different golf courses on a single site.
Greg Norman blended tradition and modern elements to create a unique golf experience.
The International course, which is the highest rated course in Florida, has the look and feel of a links-style layout in the British Isles. The International offers a golf experience unlike any other in the Orlando area, but one that will be familiar to those who have played the links courses of Scotland and Ireland. The International was designed, constructed and seeded to offer a hard, fast playing surface similar to those found on true links courses. The International, with 18 of the most dramatic and challenging holes in Florida, is destined to rank among the top resort courses in the country.

Well kept Resort course
Had an opportunity to play the international course at ChampionsGate six days after a hurricane had passed through the area. I was surprised at how well kept and resilient the course was. There was still some small areas of standing water in the fairways but I found none in the Green side bunkers. In fact the greenside bunker‘s had all been reworked and raked. Only one hole was still cartpath only. The international course designed by Greg Norman has a few trees and is supposed to be more links like. Fairways are enormous Lee wide. Some forced carries are required but if you pick the right set of tees none of them are difficult. Greens roll smooth. One of their par four holes is undergoing a major renovation and all four tee-boxes are playing off the most forward Tee. The only reason I gave this course a four star rating is because it is a bit boring. It is hard to build a Links style course in Central Florida w/o moving a lot of dirt on relatively flat terrain.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. Your feedback is valuable, and we appreciate your business. ChampionsGate Golf Club - International thanks you!
Put up some yardage poles!!!
This is a nice course but a player should not have to stand on the tee box and try to figure out where to hit a ball. Give us some yardage poles or center of the fairway poles. I don't have a caddie who has walked the course for me to figure out where to go. Without the poles/yardage markers or really anything to help you figure out where to go the course gets boring. Put one short in the fairway then a middle iron in. This course could be great with a little help to the average Joe on where to aim.

Fantastic Shape
Made a last minute change night before to play international due to rain in the area. Over 2 inches of rain last night and the course was not CPO, matter of fact was in pristine shape. Today was the first day the International course was open in 6 weeks for maintenance. Tee to green, fantastic shape. Arguably the best maintained course in central FL. If there is ever a ton of rain that occurs, always check to see if Championsgate has tee times, worth every penny.
Thank you for taking the time to review us and rate us 5-stars. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. ChampionsGate Golf Club - International thanks you!
