Eckerd College Golf Courses

ST. PETERSBURG COUNTRY CLUB
St. Petersburg Country Club is a traditional Florida private club that has been a long-standing partner with the college and the golf program. The club was established in 1924 and changed the name from Lakewood CC in 2000. The course was one of four hosts of the St. Petersburg Open, a PGA Tour event that ran between 1930 and 1964 and featured winners such as Sam Snead, Ben Hogan, Arnold Palmer, and Raymond Floyd.  It also serves as the host for the New Year's Invitational, an amateur event that has brought the best of college golfers to area for a 72-hole event in the first week of January.

THE VINOY GOLF COURSE
The Vinoy Club was established as the Sunset Golf Club in 1923 but was bought out in 1990 by the Vinoy Hotel, located downtown by the waterfront. The club is a private/resort course which allows the team selected tee times twice a week. The 98-acre course rewards target golf over power.

PASADENA YACHT AND COUNTRY CLUB
Pasadena Yacht and Country Club was built in 1924 and recently purchased by Dr. Jeff Paonessa. The private club has hosted many LPGA events and was transformed into a tee-through-green paspalum grass facility, which is a very popular Bermuda grass in the area. A short game practice area and driving range have been added to complete the golf facilities.

ISLA DEL SOL
Isla del Sol Yacht and Country Club is a General Electric project opened in 1977 as a golf development. The private club is a shorter course, forcing players to rely upon lay-ups and short-iron accuracy. The closest course to campus is located on an island which separates St. Petersburg and St. Petersburg Beach and features spectacular views of the Boca Ciega Bay.

TWIN BROOKS GOLF COURSE
Home to the First Tee of St. Petersburg and located in South St. Pete, Twin Brooks is a 9 hole par 3 golf course and driving range that includes a bonus practice area with three additional practice holes.

MANGROVE BAY GOLF COURSE
Mangrove Bay is a par 72, championship golf course located on 180 beautifully maintained acres in northeast St. Pete, Florida. Mangrove Bay features 18 holes of championship golf on USGA modified Platinum Paspalum greens, driving range, practice facility, PGA golf instruction, a clubhouse with a snack bar and a Pro Shop for all your golfing needs.
