Resort Overview

Located within the master-planned community of ChampionsGate, next to Walt Disney World, this resort is surrounded by world-class golf, acres of natural wetlands and the excitement of the dazzling sites and attractions of central Florida. With two Greg Norman-designed courses, ChampionsGate has been honorably mentioned in Golf Magazine's "10 Most Distinctive Places to Play."

Golf Overview

The Legends at ChampionsGate offers a world-class golf facility with 36 holes designed by International golf champion Greg Norman. Both the courses are in tournament-playing conditions year-round and offers first-class amenities including iced towel service and a digital GPS Caddy System. Honorably mentioned in Golf Magazine's "10 Most Distinctive Places to Play," The Legends at ChampionsGate boasts two significantly different courses: The National, an impressive American-style course with lush fairways and great par threes; and The International, a daunting, authentic links-style course.

Golf Courses

The National Course at ChampionsGate Golf Resort 

Architect:  Greg Norman
Description:
The National, this traditional American-style golf course is carved out of 200 acres of citrus groves. It features an out-and-back design and offers lush, gentle undulating fairways, creative greens, trees and woods, and bunkers-strategic on the fairways and ample around the greens. Water comes into play on a half-dozen holes. Four sets of tees provide both formidable length (7,128 years, with tow par-5's on the back nine averaging 630 yards and four par-3's all greater than 200 yards) and accessible distance (51,50 yards from the forward tees).

The signature hole is the par three, 14th Hole. This par 3 combines exhilarating anticipation with head-scratching paralysis. The tee box overlooks a wetland jungle framed by dense trees to the right and tall pines on the left. The narrow chute through which you must launch a 210-yard iron is an adventure. The good news is the green-which you discover to be generous. Don't be long, a sweeping back-side bunker and woods will swallow an exuberant shot.

The International Course at ChampionsGate Golf Resort 

Architect:  Greg Norman
Description:
The course features hard, fast playing surfaces: dramatic mounds-dunes-of sand and grass, scruffy roughs; firm fairways with ample bump-an-run opportunities and slick greens. You will need tee-box accuracy, dexterous irons, and a practiced sand wedge.

The signature hole is the par four, 7th hole. This par-4 could be a legend before its even played. This 474-yard hole should be a par-6. From an elevated tee box, you look down into a grassy valley engulfed by sweeping and sand dunes. Water sits down the right side of the fairway. Power you tee shot long, avoid the sand and get a decent lie and you will have a 175-200 yard approach shot. And its not the length that's daunting; it's the designation. Stand on your toes to see the hidden lake that replaces the left side of the fairway. To the right sits a green the size of a prospector's pan, fronted by a narrow lay-up area that slants right to left, a pothole bunker at the right front of the green and a mountain range of sand in the back. It looks like an oasis!
