With the PGA Tour in sunny south Florida for the WGC, host Lauren Thompson and golf travel expert Matt Ginella scoured the web to see what deals could be found around Miami.
Ginella starts with an old muni favorite, Crandon Golf, a jewel of the city set on Key Biscayne. While twilight tee times can be had for as low as $25, weekend afternoon times can be found under $100 (rack rates for non-residents can cost up to $200).
Next, they spotlight the Country Club of Miami, an area golfing institution dating back to 1961. This affordable club features two 18-hole courses, the East and West. Weekend times can be found in the afternoon for as low as $33.
Ginella also spotlights the many golf options at the Doral Resort, which is home to this week's World Golf Cadillac Championships and was recently purchased by Donald Trump. While the TPC Blue Monster hosts the pros, golfers can find tee times on the resort's four other courses, including the Greg Norman-designed Great White.
Lastly, Ginella spotlights The Biltmore, a historic hotel with a Donald Ross design on property. Public tee times can be found on Sunday afternoon for $139.
