Trump Doral (Red Tiger)
Trump National Doral Golf Club (Red Tiger course): Setting out from the Resort's impressive clubhouse much of the Red Tiger course is flanked by Doral's Blue Monster and Golden Palm courses. Always known as the shortest and many would say easiest-going of the Doral quartet, the Red Tiger acquired sharper "claws" in 2014 following a renovation by the Gil Hanse design team.
Like its longer and more demanding stablemates, this well-maintained layout meanders through a pleasant parkland setting. Elevation changes will not trouble you, but plenty of water hazards and excellent bunkering most surely will. A variety of trees define many of the holes, never too densely to make ball-finding difficult, but potentially blocking your route to the green after a wayward tee shot.
With six par-3s and several tightish but short par-4s, this is a layout that will reward good shot-making, but punish wayward hitters who think they can muscle their way round.
Many attractive design features like the bunker encircled green at the short par-5 12th, tightly dog-legging par-5 5th, island-green par-3 6th and threateningly water-flanked green at the par-5 10th, ensure that the Red course is no push-over, despite its relative lack of length. The putting surfaces, never overly large, are full of subtle slopes and borrows.
As on the other Doral courses, the only thing likely to disturb the tranquillity of this pleasant parkland environment is when Miami International air traffic uses the middle one of its four available runways.

Doral gets its name from DORis and AL Caskell who had the vision in the late 1950s to turn a large area of swamp to the west of Miami into what has become a stunningly successful golf and leisure resort.
The original names for the Doral courses - Blue, White, Gold, Red and Silver - are based on the colours typically used for the different sets of tees on Florida golf courses
The Red course at Doral hosted the 2001 LPGA Office Depot Championship.
