TPC at Prestancia opened in 1985 as the third private club iin the TPC Golf Network. The quality fo the course and its facilities is recognised by the fact that it has been the host club for eight Chrysler Cup Tournaments, and five American Express Invitational's Champions Tour events.
Laid out over nearly 600 acres of land TPC Prestancia offers two championship length golf courses in the beautiful Palmer Ranch area of Sarasota, Florida.
The Stadium Course was designed by Florida's own Ron Garl with PGA Tour player Mike Souchack as consultant. The 6,927 yard, par 72 course was fashioned after the TPC Network's flagship course, TPC Sawgrass, which allows for maximum gallery enjoyment from the many hills dotted along the broad fairways. The Stadium Course definitely rewards shot making more than length and features undulating greens that rise and fall as players approach the signature 9th and 18th holes.
The Club Course, at 6,518 yards off the back tees, is shorter than the Stadium but is generally considered to be the tougher of the two courses. Designed by Robert Von Hagge with PGA Tour player Bruce Devlin as consultant, it is an eclectic Florida design with classic doglegs and hazards (both natural and mad-made) combining to presents many challenges that even the toughest competitor might find difficult.
Both courses have fairways and greens of bermuda grass and both are golf buggy only (no walking).
Open to members of the TPC Network. Visitors should contact the club to make arrangements.
