The Big Kahuna: TPC Sawgrass (Ponte Vedra Beach)
This legendary course needs no introduction. Home to THE PLAYERS Championship, TPC Sawgrass is the crown jewel of Florida's TPC scene. The infamous island green 17th will have you sweating (from nerves, not the heat, hopefully), while the entire course is a true test of skill. Just be prepared to loosen those purse strings – TPC Sawgrass isn't exactly known for its budget-friendly green fees.
Pro Tip: Pack your patience (and maybe a few extra balls) – Sawgrass ain't for the faint of heart (or swing).
