Wentworth Golf Club
About
Wentworth Golf Club is routed through a scenic and varied landscape of woods and wetlands. At 6,459 yards, the golf course is relatively short but it offers a demanding, target-style layout. The course has narrow fairways and small greens that run fast. The front nine is routed through towering stands of cypress trees, pines, and mature oaks while the back nine has a more links-style layout that will test your shot-making skills. Water hazards come into play on several holes but the far more prominent features of the course are the massive bunkers that lurk beside the fairways and greens, ready to swallow even slightly errant shots. Careful strategy is required throughout the course in order to avoid losing balls. In addition to the challenging layout, Wentworth G.C. boasts superb conditions that are considered some of the area's best.

Good greens
Greens are in great condition as well as tee boxes. Fairways could use some work in certainl areas but otherwise course is in good shape.
Thank you for visiting us at Wentworth Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Wentworth it? No!
I should have heeded the negative reviews but we wanted a warm up round after traveling and the most recent reviews said the rain was helping. The only thing that will help this course is an infusion of money, expert care and time.
Positives: friendly staff, decent (very slow) greens
Negatives: everything else. Poor, uneven tee boxes. Dirt fairways (see pictures).Tree roots in bunkers.
I wish them luck but even half off a Hot Deal would not get me back there.
Wentworth or Notworth!
Help Wanted...Please! WOW, where to start. This track is the definition of missed opportunity. What a great piece of land. One of the best tracks of land I have seen in my five years living here. But truthfully the course condition was brutal. Greens were fine for the most part we saw 1 bad green #4 I believe. As for the course condition. Two things all golf courses need. Grass and a lawnmower. It look like they had tried to set the course up for the U.S. Open. No grass where you wanted it and foot high weeds where you didn't. The only bunkers that had seen a rake was on hole #9. And yes each cart had rakes on them, but wasn't nobody using them. Hardpan abound! It looked like the course had been sold. With the right ownership this place could be one of West Florida's top tracks. And yes I did read the reviews before playing and yes the article about the battle over the private vs. public split. All I say is this place has so much potential and so underwhelming.
Good value
Course has some rough spots but if you roll the ball it is fine. Back nine layout is shortish but tight with some demanding shots required. Overall, this is a better value than some recent reviews suggest.
We are so pleased that you enjoyed your time at Wentworth Golf Club. We look forward to seeing you on the course soon for another 5-star experience!
Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. We see you rated the course 2-stars and are interested in learning what we can do to improve for your next visit.
We take customer feedback very seriously at our course. Please reach out to our team in the golf shop and tell us what's on your mind.
Course conditions continue to digress
I have a family member who lives on the course so I see the course daily when I visit. Many of the tees have little to no grass. Many of the greens have large areas of dead or little grass. The golf carts are old and worn down. The staff did say they have new ones on order. Weeds have taken over many of the fairways. The cart bridge from 14 to 15 is falling apart. Staff was very nice. Pub prices reasonable and food was good.
Wanted - RAIN!
Made the trip to Wentworth this week and like most other area courses, it needs rain badly! The greens are hanging in there (great shape really) but the rest of the course is drying up. If I had one wish it would be for a few thunderstorms over the next several days. I always enjoy visiting with the staff and the food is pretty good so be sure to grab something while you're there. This is a great course in need of some TLC from mother nature - still worth playing though at summer rates!
We would love to hear more about your positive experience on our course. Please contact us to share your favorite part of your experience and what we can do to earn that last star! Thanks for golfing at Wentworth Golf Club!
Current owner must not care
No idea how the ratings I have just read would give this course a 3 star rating. The staff of 1 person was very nice and helpful. The course is barely playable as dried out and more dirt that grass. Tee boxes not good. Tough to hit fairway shots on dirt.
We are guessing it would take easily $1million to get the course back to a playable condition. Will not be back to find out. As will other courses in the Tampa Bay area it appears that the owner may be planning to sell the land to a developer.
Not fantastic
Love the course layout. Greens consistent though slow. Tee boxes uneven and fairways with many bare areas. Fair value though.
Good track but awful conditions
The greens are finally good, but the rest of the course is in terrible shape. I play this course the most and it is sad how bad the tee boxes and fairways have become. Hitting the fairway should be a benefit, but typically it’s just sand under the ball. I love the difficulty of this course and will still play here, but please management fix the problems. It’s become really bad.
Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. Please know the current conditions are by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We will continue to work towards a 5-star experience and we hope to see you back!
Place is going down hill
I realize we have not gotten a lot of rain but the t boxes, fairways and greens were in bad shape, worst I have seen it. They also had the spriklers on while we were playing and they said there was nothing they could do that they were on a timer. I like the course layout and the wilderness of half the holes but they have been letting it go to to the dogs.

Awesome greens
Very friendly staff. Greens were in absolute perfect condition, the best I’ve played in the Tampa area. Tee boxes could use a little work along with fairways but not much, and bunkers weren’t in best of shape. But very satisfied with the course. Will be back.
Thank you for visiting us at Wentworth Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Once a pristine golf course, now a goat ranch.
I’ve played Wentworth a handful of times through the past ten years or so. It was once a beautifully maintained, pristine golf course. It has slowly been going downhill though. And this last time, it was honestly almost unplayable. It is in terrible condition. The greens are extremely shaggy and slow. The sand traps have grass growing in them. There are dirt patches everywhere there should be grass. I don’t know what has happened to the course over the years but it’s a real shame. The layout is great and the setting is beautiful with the neighborhood all around. It just needs to be brought back to what it once was. But until that happens, I will not be patronizing this course again.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We understand your frustration with the current course conditions. Please bear with us as we work diligently to make improvements. We hope you'll give us another try in the future.
Terrible conditions.
Sand traps were never combed and had rocks and debris as well as weeds in them. There were no tee boxes just dirt patches. Fairways constantly had sand where grass should be. The greens haven’t been cut in a long time and we’re slower than the fairways. It’s a crime and borderline fraud that they charge over $50 to play here.
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve and are working diligently to improve the course. Thank you for playing and we hope to see you again in the future.
Bad
