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.

Excellent
Everything about the International course is excellent. Course conditions are best I have seen anywhere for a long long time. (For reference in the last 3 weeks i have played Waldorf, both Orange County courses, Shingle Creek, Mission Inn and Falcons Fire). Greens are very challenging, fast, firm and so true. Fairways and tees are excellent. Rough is plenty challenging. Practice areas are excellent. Staff was nice and very helpful. Really looking forward to my next round there.
Excellent! Thank you for your kind words. We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing ChampionsGate Golf Club.
Superb condition
Played several rounds this month on International course , also National course. Have played other area courses, but Championsgate golf club conditions surpasses them all.
Wonderful! 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.
ChampionsGate International is Impeccable
From tee to green it is difficult to imagine a course in better condition than CG-I. The only blemishes are the unfilled divots that irresponsible golfers have failed to repair. The greens are fast and true but receptive to a crisply struck approach shot. The tees are invariably healthy and plush. The rough is full and as difficult as it should be. Under the pleasant conditions I experienced, the course fairly tested one’s golfing skills. However, given a brisk wind, instead of a gentle breeze, CG-I could certainly be a monster! The layout is straight forward and there are no hidden tricks or pitfalls. Simply stated, the course has no shortcomings and is a treat to play! I highly recommend it.
Wonderful! 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.
Outstanding! We are so pleased that you enjoyed your time at ChampionsGate Golf Club. We look forward to seeing you on the course soon for another 5-star experience!
prefect fall day of golf
course was immaculate. Greens were fast and firm. Played the back tees and still got into trouble. Have to play this track once to understand where you can miss your shots. The rough was punishing as it should be. A perk was watching Patrick Reed getting a lesson from David Ledbetter.

Great shape
The course was in great shape but the winds from the hurricane that hit the panhandle made it extremely difficult.

Best Course in Area
I will make this simple. The course is in PGA Tour condition
Terrific! Thank you for your kind words. We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing ChampionsGate Golf Club.
Such a great course
It’s in immaculate shape. The front nine is very tough if you’re not on your game. The back nine is a little more fair but not easy by any means. Fairways are in great shape and the greens are fast. Can’t wait to get out there again!
Terrific! Thank you for your kind words. We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing ChampionsGate Golf Club.
