The Park, West Palm Beach’s newest public golf course, will open on the week of April 17 with a philosophy of “Open Golf” for all ages and experience levels. A product of an unprecedented public/private partnership, built entirely with charitable donations from private individuals, on rolling, sandy city land, The Park had been the site of the city golf course, The West Palm Beach Country Club, since 1947.
The new facility will feature a world class 18-hole golf course designed by Gil Hanse, Jim Wagner, and Park co-founder Dirk Ziff. In addition, there will be a lighted 9-hole par three course; an 18-hole putting course; a two-acre kids only golf area; and a lighted two-sided driving range with a state-of-the-art practice facility featuring Top Tracer technology and designed pro bono by PGA Tour Coach, Darren May. The facility will also be the new home of the South Florida PGA Section.
