PGA Tour rep keeps Magnolia golf course at Walt Disney World in the limelight
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- Disney World's Magnolia golf course plays host to the final rounds of the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals Classic held each fall. Any golf course that is a mainstay on the PGA Tour is going to be a hot draw.
For that reason, the Magnolia receives a great amount of play from avid tour buffs in the area. Championship yardage here for the tour pros stretches to over 7,500 yards, and the furthest set of tees generally set up for daily play is still a meaty 7,100-plus.
Rest assured, for not-so-tour-ready players, the Magnolia isn't horribly penal. There is a bit of room off the tee and no out of bounds, so wayward drives can often be salvaged. The difficultly comes in the added length (over 6,600 yards from the men's tees) and green complexes often heavily bunkered and guarded with water. Par is more difficult out here than the other golf courses, but don't expect your card to be filled with snowmen either.
