Wycliffe Golf & Country Club's West Course is one of two championship layouts at this Wellington, Florida community, designed by Karl Litten and opened in the mid-1980s. Litten, who worked extensively in Florida during this period, created a course that navigates the flat South Florida terrain typical of Palm Beach County developments, incorporating water hazards, strategic bunkering, and mature landscaping that has evolved significantly since the course's early years. The West Course routing makes extensive use of lakes and wetlands, which come into play on most holes and define both strategy and aesthetics throughout the round. The layout features relatively open fairways framed by palms and tropical vegetation, with Bermuda grass playing surfaces suited to the region's climate. Greens are moderately sized and protected by bunkers and water, requiring accurate approach play. The course measures over 6,800 yards from the back tees, providing a solid test for accomplished players while remaining accessible from forward tees. Wycliffe serves a substantial membership community in Wellington, an area known for its equestrian culture and concentration of country club developments. The club offers traditional amenities including dining facilities and tennis, and the West Course complements the property's East Course to provide variety for members. The course reflects the design conventions of 1980s Florida golf, emphasizing water management, target golf, and year-round playability in a subtropical environment.
