Isleworth is located in 600 tranquil acres near to Windermere in the heart of the lakes, which lie in profusion a few miles to the southwest of downtown Orlando. You’ll find Arnold Palmer’s Bay Hill a mile or so to the southeast and it was The King and his partner Ed Seay who originally designed the course at Isleworth Golf & Country Club.
Opening for play in 1986, the course at Isleworth is the centrepiece for one of the nation’s premier residential communities and home to a plethora of famous golfing names. Steve Smyers completed a multimillion-dollar course redesign in 2004, which resulted in a tougher, longer and considerably more interesting layout.
Luxurious houses line a number of the lush and manicured Isleworth fairways where you’ll find many of the world’s top players honing their skills. The course can be stretched to 7,544 yards from the tips, which are generally left for a selection of Tour Pros who come together to contest the annual Tavistock Cup, a charity match billed as “the ultimate showdown to determine the World Golf and Country Club Champion.”
The inaugural, televised Tavistock Cup event started in 2004 as a match between Isleworth and Lake Nona but, in 2011, two other clubs that also enjoy an unrivalled depth of professional talent, joined the party. The Bahamian Albany came second in the 2011 matches while England’s Queenwood could only pick up the wooden spoon while watching Lake Nona lift their fourth World Golf and Country Club Championship title on Isleworth’s home turf.
The Hero World Challenge was hosted at Isleworth Golf & Country Club in 2014 for a single season when Jordan Speith destroyed the field winning the event by 10 strokes.
