World Golf Village is home to 36 challenging holes of championship golf. The Slammer & Squire Course is named after the two World Golf Hall of Fame legends, Sam Snead and Gene Sarazen, who served as consultants to the course's designer, Bobby Weed. The golf course is known for its tricky par-3 holes and the carefully preserved beauty of the landscape. Its traditional layout meanders through native flatwoods and hardwood hammocks, running alongside wetland preserves and a wildlife habitat. The scenic Slammer & Squire Course features contoured greens and gently rolling, generous fairways. There is also an abundance of water on the golf course in the forms of lakes and marshes.

Best course in Florida for the money

I have played well over 1000 rounds of golf across our great United States. The Slammer and Squire is the best course I have ever played for the $$ you pay - Bar none

Great Course, Great Round

At the World Golf Village you should expect no less. Challenging yet playable course with lots of water and sand. Hey, it's Florida! Great conditions throughout, although greens weren't 100% back from aeration a month ago. Great staff, starter, bev cart, etc. Only quibble was the group behind pressing us because they were playing from the very forward tees, then driving within a tire width of the greens.

Average course conditions because the greens had just been aerated. (Yet, they still charged full price).

Great Exerience

The course has an excellent layout and beautiful landscape. The greens were almost healed from being punched. I really enjoyed the round. I would like to see a hole layout on the card or on the cart.

Fun Course...Pristine Conditions!

Slammer & Squire was a beautiful and fun course to play. It was actually a little more difficult than I was expecting. The course was in pristine shape. I would definitely recommend playing if you are in the area...especially for the price.
