Designed by Tom and George Fazio and named after golf legend Walter Hagen, the Haig Course was the first to open for play at PGA National Resort & Spa. Fazio’s goal in designing this spectacular choice among Palm Beach golf clubs was to create an outstanding quality course that would be playable for all types of golfers.
The major design factor relates to the location of water hazards. There are no crossing water hazards meaning no forced carries eliminating a major obstacle for the high handicap golfer and creating a more relaxing experience.
At 6,806 yards, the Haig is the third-longest course at PGA National and has the highest difficulty rating from the standard men’s (white) and ladies’ (red) tees. Both the 9th and 18th holes return to the clubhouse area, allowing play to start from the 1st and 10th tees making the Haig Course a convenient choice for 9-hole play in the afternoon.
