ORLANDO, FLORIDA (January 21, 2015) – Tranquilo Golf Club at Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World Resort today announced a new golf experience that offers an exclusive, two-day golf immersion and an evening event with renowned golf instructor Dave Stockton.
Stockton is an 11-time winner on the PGA Tour, 14-time winner on the Champions Tour, a Ryder Cup Captain, and is known as one of the preeminent short game gurus. His unique mental philosophy developed and honed by his 40 years of competitive golf, and techniques for shots 100 yards and under, became a focus of his best-selling book, Unconscious Putting. He decided to partner exclusively with Four Seasons Resort Orlando due to a longstanding relationship with Rod Cook, director of instruction at Tranquilo Golf Club, who has known Stockton for many years.
“I’m thrilled to bring Dave Stockton’s talent to Tranquilo Golf Club at Four Seasons Orlando,” says Cook. “He is a true legend, and the rare opportunity for golfers to be able to hone their skills with him directly and enjoy a golf-focused retreat is going to be a one-of-a-kind experience.”
The Dave Stockton Experience at Four Seasons Resort Orlando will feature two days of golf instruction plus two to three rounds of golf; all meals; a golf amenity package plus transportation to and from the airport and the resort.
