Nestled beyond the Gate within the heart of Central Florida lies the City of Champions Gate. As Orlando’s premiere tourist and commercial destination — encompassing some 1,500 acres southwest of The Walt Disney World Resort — Champions Gate® welcomes visitors just off its I-4 exit with stately rows of towering palm trees behind the beautifully-designed double gates. Great Restaurants one can dine in or take out after spending a day at the parks. Ice Cream, Frozen yogurt treats, Bars and More! A 36 holes of championship golf designed by International golf champion Greg Norman, Champions Gate is like no other golf resort in the world. The golf resort also features a 35,000 square foot clubhouse which features a pro shop, full-service banquet facility that accommodates up to 300 guests, and a full-service bar. David Leadbetter–the instructor of many world-famous professional golfers, including Nick Price, Ernie Els, Michelle Wie, Trevor Immelman, Ian Poulter and Greg Norman – has chosen Champions Gate® to be its World Headquarters for the The Leadbetter Golf Academy.
