Est. 2004 · Tom Watson
Why we love this place
Three legends, one address, and Tom Watson's course is a joy to play. We love the fifty feet of Florida elevation, the wide firm fairways begging you to open your shoulders, and all that flowering framing. It plays big and bold, exactly like the champion who built it.

About Reunion Resort And Club - The Watson Course
The Watson Course opened in 2004 as one of three signature layouts at Reunion Resort, southwest of Orlando near Kissimmee. Designed by five-time Open champion Tom Watson and originally christened "Independence," it reflects the traits of its architect: firm, fast turf, generously rolling fairways, sprawling bunkers and large, receptive greens. The parkland design plays across elevation changes of up to roughly fifty feet, unusual for central Florida, and is framed by native grasses, azaleas, camellias and other flowering plantings. Reunion is distinctive as a resort carrying courses from Watson, Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer on a single property. The resort also hosted the LPGA Tour's Ginn Open from 2006 through 2008.
