Awards
At SentryWorld, we put a lot of hard work into our course, facilities, restaurant, and boutique hotel, and we’re honored to see that hard work recognized by golfers and publications from around the state and beyond. Every award we’ve received over the past three decades is a direct result of the time, effort, creativity, and ingenuity of our team.
We know a golf course doesn’t just get to call itself a “destination course” without backing it up—it’s a title and an honor that’s earned, round after round, year after year. We earned that designation when we opened the course in 1982, and renewed it during a major course renovation ending in 2014. And we promise to continue searching for ways to make your SentryWorld experience even better. Because more than anything else, that’s what matters.
An award-winning championship golf course from the beginning
SentryWorld has a long and decorated history of hosting top events and legendary golfers. The course’s natural beauty and versatile layout, including five sets of tees, make it ideal for tournaments of all kinds—from state high school tournaments and senior championships to women’s amateur championships and U.S. Open qualifiers. Many of the world’s finest golfers have played SentryWorld over the years, including Arnold Palmer, Gary Player, Steve Stricker, Betsy King, and Jan Stephenson, along with nonprofessional golfers such as Willie Nelson and Brett Favre.
