Doral Golf Resort & Spa

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Doral Golf Resort & Spa is a golf resort located in Doral, Florida. The Resort was founded by real estate pioneer Alfred Kaskel in 1962. The name "Doral" comes from a combination of the founder, Alfred, and his wife Dorris' names. The Doral Golf Resort & Spa was formerly known as the Doral Country Club and was the sister hotel to the famous Doral Hotel on the ocean in Miami Beach, Florida.

The Doral Resort features five championship courses. They are the Red Course, Gold Course, Silver Course, Great White Course, and the Blue Monster Course.

The Blue Monster course hosts the WGC-CA Championship (since 2007) and formerly hosted the Doral Open (1962 to 2006).
