Gold at Tiburón Golf Club, a Norman masterpiece sculpted into the sun-drenched landscape of North Naples, is renowned for its unwavering commitment to championship-caliber conditions year-round. This modern marvel, carved from a landscape absent of any notable topography presents generous fairways, and subtly undulating greens. Expect firm and fast conditions that reward strategic play. The course is perhaps most known for its ubiquitous use of crushed coquina shell rather than traditional rough. This stark aesthetic contrasts with the emerald fairways and presents a unique visual and playing experience. While seemingly straightforward off the tee, the Norman design subtly challenges approach shots with well-guarded greens and testing pin positions. Host to the LPGA Tour's season-ending CME Group Tour Championship, Gold offers a stern but fair test for the best players in the world. While perhaps not as storied as some of its older Floridian counterparts, Tiburón's Gold course has rapidly established itself as a significant venue in the professional game. Off the course, Gold's membership mirrors the sophistication of its design. The club's relaxed atmosphere is complemented by a robust social calendar and a particularly passionate contingent of amateur players known for their keen interest in course architecture and conditioning.
