What’s Happening?
Since assuming management in March 2026, the Arnold Palmer Golf Management team has been hard at work restoring and transforming the Meadows and Groves golf courses, bringing both back to the standard the Suncoast community deserves. The first golf course to open to the public will be the Meadows Course on Friday, June 19.
Please note the driving range will be closed for fertilization on Thursday, June 11 from 9am to 1:00 PM. We appreciate your understanding.
Course & Turf
- 50,000 square feet of new sod installed across five high-priority areas, including greens, tee boxes, the practice putting green, and the driving range
- Wall-to-wall fertilization and a custom nutrient recovery program applied to both the Meadows and Groves courses
- Full greens aerification completed May 18–21, with a targeted grow-in program timed precisely for opening day
- Targeted weed and pest control programs implemented across both courses, reversing years of accumulation
- New flags and flagsticks on every hole, branded tee markers on all active tee boxes, and new cup cutters installed to proper putting surface standards
- Driving range now offers grass hitting surfaces in addition to mats, alternating daily for optimal turf recovery
While the progress made in the first 90 days has been substantial, the work is far from over. The team’s attention now turns to the Groves course, where continued agronomic investment and restoration work will bring a second 18 holes up to the standard our players expect. The goal is simple: 36 holes of golf that the Suncoast community, its residents, and its visitors can be proud to play.
When is the opening scheduled for the Meadows Course and the Groves Course?
Meadows Course will open to the public in on Friday, June 19. Tee Times may be booked starting June 5. The timeline accounts for spring aerification maintenance practices and the healing time needed to deliver the best possible playing conditions.
The Groves Course will open to the public when course conditions are ready to deliver the quality of play our guests expect.
