TRUMP NATIONAL DORAL MIAMI

While not the fire-breathing dragon that defines its brawnier Blue Monster sibling, the Red Tiger is another prized jewel in the Trump Doral golf crown. Architect Gil Hanse’s skillful redesign incorporated bold bunkering, water on 14 holes and lush South Florida landscaping, yet the compact routing and medium-sized greens contribute to an Old World, New England-style ambience. 

Water comes into play on 16 of 18 holes on this sensational and demanding golf course. Marble-white sand bunkers and Celebration Bermuda grass blanket the course, making it appealing and intimidating to the eye. Five sets of tees let members from novices to champions decide how difficult they want the course to be – but no matter where they start, they’ll have earned a real sense of accomplishment every time they finish.

The Blue Monster is one of the legendary golf courses in America and is home to prestigious PGA Tour events for 55 consecutive years. What awaits is a palm-shaded, 7,608-yard palette of deep, brilliantly placed bunkers, lush Bermuda rough, cunningly contoured greens and an ocean’s worth of lakes. Your journey concludes with a trip up the infamous, 473-yard, par-4 18th, recognized by GOLF Magazine as one of the Top 100 Holes in the World.

Architect Gil Hanse and his design team completely reworked Doral’s Gold course into a special experience. The Golden Palm complements the Blue Monster with its themes of re-contoured greens and dramatic water features that provide exciting risk/reward options and an unforgettable finishing hole. Yet, it challenges in its own unique way with a dazzling array of bunkers, most fortified with a collar of lush Bermuda rough. A par or better at the par-4, island-green 18th hole is cause for a celebration!
