Sentry Tournament of Champions
We are here at the Kapalua Resort on Maui to enjoy great golf at one of the world's most beautiful courses.
First, add some Hawaiian music to the background as you review this post by clicking here:
The Plantation Course at Kapalua is special. Great views, pleasant temperatures, and world-class golfers all come together here the first week of January each year.
The 18th hole, shown above, is a delight to experience. At 677 yards, it poses a real challenge for the golfers. Indeed the tournament winner was determined here on the last putt of the day (Sunday).
We could see the Plantation Course from our Villa and the resort shuttle ran us up to the course each day.
Chuck and Mary Widlowski joined us on Maui. They came over from our winter home community, Heritage Pines, in Florida. We saw some tremendous golf shots over the days. Many of world's top golfers were here.
It is a one mile hike to the top of the course. Thus, it is a one mile jaunt for the golfers for just two holes, numbers 17 and 18. Needless to say, the views up top are spectacular.
There are some homes on the course and a local realtor told us they start at $12 million. A bit steep for most.
See if you can identify any of your favorite golfers.
Love this place.
