LAKE MARY, FL – Timacuan Golf & Country Club will host junior golfers from around the country this weekend in the Central Florida Junior Open.
The Hurricane Junior Golf Tour will conduct the 36-hole competition for a field of approximately 150 players February 26-27 on the highly acclaimed Ron Garl layout. The public is invited to watch the action free of charge. Tee times begin at 7:30 am and 12:30 pm both days on both sides. There will be competition in four boys and two girls age groups.
“Our golf course continues to be very popular among tournament organizations everywhere,,” said Timacuan General Manager Shawn McGuigan. “Timacuan’s reputation of being a top challenge for tournament golfers continues to grow, and I know these juniors will find the course to be playing tough, but fair.”
Timacuan has been among the most popular courses in Central Florida since opening in 1988. Having ranked in the top 14 golf courses in Florida, Timacuan has hosted dozens of national and international competitions. U.S. Open champion Graeme McDowell is among its fans.
“I really enjoyed the golf course,” said McDowell, after playing in the $10,000 Timacuan Scramble in January of 2013. “It is a great layout with a links-like feel to it. It can be testy in places if you get off the beaten path, but it is a very fair course.”
Timacuan Golf & Country Club is a semi-private facility that embraces both the public community as well as their long-standing, family centric membership. Home to the Sean Foley Performance Academy, Timacuan is committed to advancing the game of golf through education and instruction.
