The Fox Hollow Golf Course at Trinity
has quickly become one of the Tampa Bay area’s most popular courses. Designed by
the legendary
Robert Trent Jones Sr., it has been compared to local favorites like
Innisbrook and Tampa Palms. Fox Hollow has been ranked as one of the top three
courses in the Tampa Bay area by the Tampa Tribune, and it has hosted the USGA
Amateur Publix Qualifier, the PGA Seniors Tour’s GTE Suncoast Classic Qualifier
and the MasterCard Grand Masters Pro-Am.
Fox Hollow’s unique par-71 layout features rolling fairways, huge white-sand
bunkers, oversized and multi-tier, PGA-quality greens and a number of lovely,
but lethal water hazards. The central feature of Fox Hollow is indeed the
"hollow," a restored cypress bog that has been reconstructed into a
breathtaking, 15-acre horseshoe-shaped lake. Holes 1, 2, 10 and 18, and the
club’s practice facilities surround the lake, providing spectacular views from
all angles.
Fox Hollow’s practice facilities include a state-of-the-art driving range with
six target greens, a practice chipping green with sand trap and a huge, rolling
18-hole putting green.
