Streamsong in Florida plans full slate of amateur tournaments in 2021


Streamsong Resort in Central Florida is among the popular multi-course destinations to host several amateur tournaments each year, and it just released a 2021 schedule of six events meant to allow regular players to enjoy competition and camaraderie.

Streamsong, about 90 minutes southwest of Orlando and an hour southeast of Tampa, is home to three courses, all of which rank in the top four among Florida courses on Golfweek’s Best Courses You Can Play list for public-access layouts.

The Red was designed by Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw and ranks No. 2 in Florida’s Best Courses You Can Play list as well as No. 39 for all Modern Courses built in or after 1960 in the United States. The Black was designed by Gil Hanse and Jim Wagner and ranks No. 3 in Florida and No. 46 Modern. The Blue was laid out by Tom Doak and ranks No. 4 in Florida and No. 57 Modern.

The Red and Blue courses had their greens re-grassed in 2020, providing some of the smoothest putting surfaces found in Florida.

The resort’s tournament schedule kicks off with the Streamsong Spring Classic on March 21-23 with one round on each of the Red and Blue courses. The event is a two-person best ball competition with costs starting at $719 per person, including hotel stay.
Next up is the Family Cup on June 18-20, with teams comprised of various combinations of family members. Prices start at $619 per player and includes hotel stay.
Also added to the schedule is the Streamsong Amateur Championship on July 30-August 1. The tournament is open to all male and female, adult or junior amateurs, and the format is individual stroke play. Pricing starts at $480 and includes hotel stay.
The Summer Classic is August 20-22 and is a four-ball event. Pricing starts at $499 and includes hotel stay.
The Fall Classic is Oct. 24-27 and is a two-person best-ball event on each of the resort’s three courses. Pricing starts at $704 and includes hotel stay.
The Holiday Cup is Dec. 11-13 and is another two-person best ball event with three rounds – one on each course – with pricing starting at $719, including hotel stay.

Each event features parties and award ceremonies.

“We have plenty to celebrate as we enter a new year at Streamsong, and we are thrilled that Streamsong Red and Streamsong Blue are back and better than ever,” Scott Wilson, director of golf at Streamsong, said in a media release. “We hope these special events provide a fun environment for people to experience the resort and our three award winning courses.”
