                         Arnold Palmer “The King” and his staff have made things even better for when you make your next visit to the Bay Hill Club in Orlando Florida.

In the spring the Bay Hill Club shut down it’s famous golf course and home of the Arnold Palmer Invitational sponsored by Mastercard, and redid the greens along with a couple of minor tweeks to the course.

The course and the greens are expected to be fine by tournament time and in better shape when the PGA Tour pro’s arrive.

Adding the resort and what it offers was another award presented by the International Association of Golf Tour Operators (IAGTO).

“When we received the news that this honor had been bestowed upon Bay Hill, we couldn’t have been more proud,” said Ray Easler, Vice President, Hospitality & Operations. “It is our goal to provide our members and guests with the best service that is second to none, and by merit of this award, we are gratified to know our goal has been realized.”

The golf course at Bay Hill was renovated with new TifEagle bermudagrass was sprigged on the greens, while Celebration bermudagrass was put in the fairways and on the tee boxes for all 18 holes.

“The response for our members and everyone who has played the golf course since it’s reopening has been overwhelmingly positive,” said Easler. “We are anticipating truly exceptional course conditions for the tour event in March of 2016.”

Bay Hill is located just minutes from the downtown Orlando along the Butler Chain of Lakes, the property has 70 overnight rooms and 27 holes of golf, along with the Arnold Palmer Golf Academy and a full service spa and fitness center, and Olympic size swimming pool, and three dining locations, and three lounges.
