(PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla.) – PGA National Resort & Spa – home of the PGA TOUR Honda Classic and celebrating 30 years of legendary golf experiences – has completed a contemporary revitalization of its 2,200-square-foot golf shop serving its five resort and championship courses.
Included as part of the $65 million comprehensive reinvention of the distinguished 379-room Florida destination, the golf shop now features separate check-in locations for guests and private members, allowing staff to provide faster service and exemplary customer care. The innovative space now showcases new carpet, granite countertops and up-to-date fixtures providing an invigorated decor, modern feel and greater area for guest-friendly vendor and product displays.
“Our refreshing new look in our golf shop enhances check-in, shopping and the overall experience at one of the world’s greatest golf resorts,” says Joel Paige, Vice President and Managing Director.
The revision of the golf shop brings full-circle 30 years of rich golf history at PGA National as home to the PGA Tour’s Honda Classic, the 25th Ryder Cup, the 69th PGA Championship and nearly two decades of Senior PGA Championships. PGA National also has the unrivaled distinction of being the world’s only golf resort to feature both the David Leadbetter Golf Academy and Dave Pelz Scoring Game School. Among other new contemporary additions on the resort property was an eye-catching zero entry pool, a signature restaurant, and trendy, atmospheric lobby bar. Chef-driven, seasonal menus for all food venues are being created by new Executive Chef Kenny Gilbert – current contestant on season seven of “Top Chef.”
