Strategic Insight

Members only

Expected cut lineNo cutAfter 36 holes

Strength of field

Field limited to 84 male amateurs with handicaps of 15.0 or less, featuring Championship flights for scratch and low-handicap players alongside competitive net flights for mid-handicappers.

Course expectations

Over 7,100 yards of championship golf where precision trumps power—crown fairways run fast and firm, water hazards guard 15 holes, and the greens are pristine, very fast, and finely contoured.

Weather risk

Late August in Southwest Florida brings afternoon thunderstorm risk and high heat—morning rounds favored, with live scoring via Golf Genius app helping officials manage any weather delays.
