The Groves Golf & Country Club in Land O’ Lakes has been ranked as the No. 2 best golf value in the Tampa Bay area by Golf Advisor, a website which offers golf course reviews and ratings by golfers across the United States and world.
Nearly 95% of the reviewers who played The Groves recommended the course, second highest among 120 in the Tampa area, the website reported.
For this list, Golf Advisor looked for courses that are roughly 2,200 yards and longer, or a par 31 (double that for 18-hole courses), and urban courses that allow a golfer to hit every club in their bag. The site used 2018-2019 Nielson market size data to determine the 50 largest markets and used a 30-mile radius from the urban core. Courses were ranked on:
- Conditions
- Value
- Layout
- Friendliness of Staff
