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.

Very Links feel, LONG par 4 with water on the right short to medium and water left near the green requiring a long carry if you are in the left fairway. TOUGH Photo submitted by Gage6692955 on 10/06/2012
Nice
Enjoyable round, greens were good pace, only comment would be the greens staff change the hole positions on a lot of greens within 3/4ft of the old ones (maybe because of drainage) I had a few putts that were resting in old hole marks, not a negative just feedback.
Great! We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing ChampionsGate Golf Club.
What A Fun Course
This was my first time playing the international at champions gate and I was very impressed. I’ve played many of the public courses in the Orlando area since moving here in 2017, and this was definitely one of the best experiences I’ve had.
The links-style layout is very unique compared to most courses in the area, and forces you to think strategically about every shot. The conditions were excellent from tee to green. The fairways can be very narrow and the greens were hard so it can be tough to get approach/chip shots to check up, but that’s links golf. It also has nice views for a resort course, and many holes are far enough away from the resort that they manage to be peaceful.
I had a lot of fun playing the international and for the price you really can’t beat it. We got a hot deal for $40 earlier in the day which was well worth it, but I’ve seen afternoon prices as low as $20-$30, which is an absolute steal.
Terrific! Thank you for sharing your 5-star experience. We look forward to seeing you again at the course soon! Thanks for choosing ChampionsGate Golf Club.
Excellent! Thank you for your 5-star rating! Please book another round with us soon.
Amazing
Beautiful course, it’s in great shape and the holes are set up nicely.
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.
Tough but fair!
This is the Second time I’ve played this course. If I can make one recommendation to any first timer, played to keep the ball in play. If you’re 1 inch off the fairway you are in calf high grass. Accuracy is of the utmost importance, so take a shorter club and keep it in the short grass.
Great! We're glad that you enjoyed our course and the challenge it presented. We look forward to having you back again soon for your next round!
Terrific! Come back soon!
Great course in great shape
The course is in great shape. Fairways are great. Greens are hard and fast. Overall this is a phenomenal golf course that's definitely worth playing.
Wonderful! We're thrilled that our course conditions met your expectations and that you found us to be a great value. We can't wait to have you back again soon for your next round at ChampionsGate!
Excellent facilities and course,
Son and I arrived to the course early so wife and daughter could go shopping and check us into our resort.
Practice greens and chipping area were great, driving range had well maintained grass hitting zones, but the range balls were not refilled and we nearly ran out. There was a morning tournament the ended around 1:45. To fill the course they had groups going out on both 1 and 10 tees. Which caused a back up for us when we came or the back nine and headed to front nine.
. Entire course was well maintained. We were able to try out callaway rogue irons and epic flash face driver and fairway woods as course loaners, was not impressed with the clubs.
There were no cart girls and it got hot in the afternoon could have used some drinks
Awesome! We're pleased that you and your son enjoyed our course and our practice areas. We appreciate your review and we hope to have you back again soon for your next round!
Great course
Had a 45 minute rain delay but once on the course really enjoyed it and it played at pace
Hi. Thank you so much for the great review in spite of the rain delay. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing ChampionsGate - International Golf Club.
In good shape
This the time of year to play this course as it wasn't crowded at all. In good shape and we played in 3 1/2 hours. A wonderful layout and a course you want to play as well as Champions Gate Country Club next door. Right now in pristine condition as good as Bermuda course can be.
Excellent! We're glad that our course conditions met your expectations and that you were able to play at a good pace. We look forward to having you back again soon for your next round!
Nah
Course conditions, amazing..greens rolled true. Staff, terrible. Brutal. the starter was a jerk (told us it was his course and he makes the rules). Won’t come back
Thank you for your review! We're pleased that you enjoyed our course but we apologize that our staff didn't leave a great impression on you. This is not the kind of customer service we strive to provide our guests and we would love the chance to learn more about your time with us. Please reach out to us at 407.787.4653 and ask for either Jake or Patrick. Thank you again and we look forward to speaking with you!
Championsgate International is a fantastic course
The international course at the Omni Resort is spectacular and challenging. The winds keep you cool from the summer heat, but plays havoc with your shots. Truly a well manicured course with consistent, quick greens. Best place to play in the four corners for the money and challenge. You will not be disappointed. In fact after playing, I am considering joining as a member.
Terrific! We're thrilled that you enjoyed our course and the challenge it presented. We would be honored to have you as a member and we can't wait to have you back again soon at ChampionsGate!
This course was a lot of fun
From start to finish this course was absolute fun. From the practice green to the driving range to the course itself was a blast. Will definitely be coming back to play again and again.
Wonderful! We're glad that you enjoyed our course and all of our practice areas. We look forward to having you back again soon for your next round with us!
Wonderful! Come back soon!
Championsgate International Course Continues to Lead in the Area
I play this course with some regularity and it continues to lead the entire area for quality of course conditions, staff friendliness and amenities. The fairways and greens are in top condition and I couldn't be happier with the experience at Championsgate. Bravo to the entire team!
Outstanding! We're glad that you enjoyed our course and that our staff left a great impression on you. We appreciate your kind words and we look forward to having you back again soon!
Great! Glad you enjoyed your time with us!
Excellent course
Played here end of March during a golf trip. Really well maintained course. Friendly staff. More of linksy style than their National course. And definitely harder. Greens rolled true. Beautiful views! Highly recommend this course
Fantastic! We're thrilled that our course conditions met your expectations and that our staff left a great impression on you. We can't wait to have you back again soon for your next round at ChampionsGate!
Great course
Challenging course, very well maintained and really nice to play! Highly recommend it, especially if you like Links designs, playing for position and risk/reward holes.
Wonderful! We're thrilled that you enjoyed our course and the challenge it presented. We can't wait to have you back again soon for your next round at ChampionsGate!
