Other than the pitch and putt, which appears to be on high ground, there are no golf courses between the Turnpike and 44 for The Villages to flood.

Unless The Villages confirms otherwise, the "prairies" will become lakes with no place to drain. Overflows will have no place to go but the streets and yards.

Parts of central Florida received over 16" off rain during Ian and are still flooded.
