Treviso Bay tees up to host its first ACE Group Classic

There's a lot going on at Treviso Bay, the 1,050-acre golfing community east of St. Andrews Boulevard on U.S. 41 in Naples. Early last month, the community's PGA Tour TPC golf course, the only TPC course in Southwest Florida, opened all 18 holes for members-only play. The opening came just days after the course was named home of the PGA Tour's Champions Tour ACE Group Classic hosted by Peter Jacobsen. Celebrating its 22nd year in Southwest Florida, the ACE Group Classic is one of the most prestigious events on the PGA Tour's Champions Tour schedule.

TPC Treviso Bay will host its first ACE Group Classic Feb. 16-22. Eight past champions have committed to play. Bobby Wadkins (2007), Loren Roberts (2006), Craig Stadler (2004), Gil Morgan (1998 and 2002) and Hale Irwin (1997 and 2001) will join defending champion Scott Hoch; inaugural champion Gary Player (1988) and Bob Murphy (1995) will also return.

TPC Treviso Bay is the centerpiece of a community that will have approximately 1,200 residences upon completion. The 7,367-yard, par-72 course was designed by Arthur Hills, with PGA Championship winner and Ryder Cup Captain Hal Sutton as player consultant.
