// QUOTING COACH DOUG MARTIN
On preparation for the tournament:
"I very much like the quick turnaround (after playing in the All-American Intercollegiate last week). I feel like we made great progress as a team in Houston. We have had three good days of prep in good weather.
On the mindset heading into this weekend:
"The Golden Eagle is a great venue and will challenge our team over the weekend. As a team we must continue our work toward executing at a higher level in all facets of the game. The more reps we get, the more likely this is to occur."
// GOLDEN EAGLE COUNTRY CLUB
Golden Eagle's foremost attraction is its 18-hole golf course, designed by world renowned golf course architect Tom Fazio. The course sprawls 6,965 yards from the back tees. It was rated "the most challenging course in Florida" by the United States Golf Association just six months after opening in December 1986. Golfweek Magazine has ranked Golden Eagle among the top 50 real-estate development courses in the Southeast, Citing its distinctive design and enhancement of the property's natural beauty as "a cut above the rest."
Golden Eagle features wide fairways and strategically placed Scottish bunkers to create a course that is challenging yet playable for both casual and serious golfers. It is readily evident that the course architect took full advantage of the natural topography of the fabulous acreage surrounding Golden Eagle.
