Opened in 1972, Wekiva Golf Club has grown into one of the most established courses in Central Florida. Its reputation and popularity are due to many factors: a solid course design, course conditions and desirable location within a populated residential community. It is one of the best Orlando golf options. September 29, 2012 Wekiva re-opened their newly constructed greens with Champions Bermuda, one of the smoothest, quickest putting grasses on the market today.
Crafted out of a wooded setting, Wekiva features many doglegs bordered by large stands of trees and no parallel fairways. All holes are very well bunkered with water coming into play on three holes of this Longwood golf course. Its straight forward layout is an enjoyable experience for the recreational golfer as well as a low-handicapper. A semi-private club that welcomes outside play, this 18 hole, 6,850 yard par 72, features beautiful oaks, mature pines and palms; rolling fairways; 80 plus strategically placed bunkers and gentle mounding that highlights both the fairways and undulating greens.
If you’ve ever dreamed of launching bombs off the tee with less strain, this one’s for you. Distance is one of the top three issues golfers bring to a lesson—along with slicing and inconsistency. The good news? A simple drill can help you fix that today.
