ChampionsGate Golf Club - International
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.

Enjoyable Golf outing
The course was in very good condition considering it is February ; the greens were firm and fast and the pace of play was 4 hours . This course is a must do when in Orlando

Save for Pace of Play
Course was in great condition, fast greens, exposed to wind with links style layout. Staff as usual were friendly and professional in their approach. Could have done without the maintenance going on directly behind me while warming up on the driving range with the heavy smell of cow manure in the air. The only blemish was the awful place of play with a 5 hour round and no ranger in sight….still a must play.

Very angry
Pulled up unloaded my own clubs ok no big deal park go in to check in girl behind the counter no eye contact barely checked me in go downstairs no one offered any help driving range ok go to the 1st tee no starter no scorecard ☹️Tee off on time got through the first 3 holes and was held up from there on 2 ball in front of me waited till the green was cleared on the next 6 holes before teeing off absolutely ridiculous they can’t hit the ball 200 yards but I guess they thought they were so good that driving backwards on the 9th as seen in my video was a good idea 2 hours and 45 minutes for 9 holes again absolutely ridiculous so no way I was going to finish the next 9 before the sun went down so I payed $60 for 9 holes

Fine Course but pace of play too slow
The Course is very challenging and cleverly designed. The pace of play was far too slow, Marshalls were not present and there was no pressure on players to quicken even when sun was setting. We had only played 14 holes when darkness came.
The greens were excessively fast, mustn’t have been watered in some time.
Thank you so much for your feedback. We are glad you had enjoyed your time at ChampionsGate Golf Club - International, and pride ourselves on delivering the best experience possible.
We hope to see you again soon!

One of the best courses I’ve ever played
The whole experience was flawless. The guy who served me food was good, the pro shop staff were over and above and took great care of me. The moronic airline lost my sticks and they gave me a set to use which was an unnecessary but appreciated courtesy.
The course itself is impeccable. Greens are speedy. Wished the clubs had a 60 degree wedge but that’s my only gripe.
I will definitely be back
Hi, thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing ChampionsGate Golf Club - International.

International Course at ChampionsGate
Actually played here on back to back days and found the course in good condition. Pretty sure I’m the only person that chose to walk, but found it reasonably walkable without slowing down the rest of the group. Greens were great and fairly quick especially day 2 after being rolled. Design is interesting, with a variety of shorter and longer holes, and I hit most clubs in my bag. Tough layout but manageable for a straight hitter.
Thanks so much for your review. We're so glad you enjoyed your round at ChampionsGate Golf Club - International. That's what we like to hear! We hope to see you again soon!

Great golf course. Generous off the tee. Greens rolled true, medium speed. I'm on a golf vacation from Michigan and this has been by far the nicest course I've played in the 9 rounds I've gotten in. I highly recommend it.
