Golf Course Information
Description
The King & Bear represents the ultimate collaboration of golf's greatest legends - Arnold Palmer "The King" and Jack Nicklaus the "Golden Bear." Fierce competitors on the golf course, Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus took this opportunity off the course to create what is the only design collaboration in the world between the two Hall of Fame members.
Located at the World Golf Village Resort, The King & Bear golf course is set among pristine lakes, beautiful lullaby pines, and majestic oak trees. Golfers will note that each hole contains the design characteristics of both players' styles to create a unique layout experience incorporating Nicklaus' inviting fairways and Palmer's fast greens. Not surprisingly, the layout puts a premium on driving, as both Palmer and Nicklaus were known for their power.
So enamored of the course he helped design, Arnold Palmer selected hole number 15 as one of his "Dream 18" in Sports Illustrated's Preview to the Ryder Cup 2006…and we think you'll agree.
The King & Bear is located a short drive from the Greater Jacksonville area and historic downtown St. Augustine, Florida. With stunning beaches, waterfront restaurants, local craft breweries, and a myriad of historical sites, there is plenty to do on and off the course.
