Central Florida has long been home to both amateur and professional golf tournaments. The Arnold Palmer Invitational – played annually at Bay Hill – has been a hallmark of the PGA TOUR since the 1970s, but the region’s golf story stretches back more than a century. Join our curator of collections, Travis Puterbaugh, for an engaging look at memorable moments, players, and courses that have shaped the game’s history in Central Florida.
