The courses here are not up to PGA standards, and the original construction were not to USGA Standards. Just take a trip to Juliette Falls in Ocala that had an LPGA Tour stop there for three years. No comparison to The Villages courses, which in most cases do not stack up to Private Country Club layouts, which themselves have only a minimal amount that could host a PGA tournament.
