The traps on this course are absolutely terrible. If they are not going to put sand in them, then they should turn them into grass bunkers. It is obvious that not a lot of money goes into the maintenance of this course. Evidently they are trying to squeeze every dollar out of it that they can. I was sorry that I played in the tournament. If it is held at this course again next year I will take a pass.

Great Fazio layout. Played white tees as a guest and enjoyed the near-perfect course conditions with near-perfect weather. As a 57-yr old 6-hdcp this is one of my favorite Courses in Central Florida.
