The Concession was designed in honor of the 1969 Ryder Cup, where Jack Nicklaus conceded a putt to Tony Jacklin. That gesture, known as “the concession,” rendered the two teams in a tie (the first in Ryder Cup history) and became known as one of the greatest acts of sportsmanship ever. Nicklaus and Jacklin teamed to design The Concession, home to some of the best golf in Florida.
The Concession Golf Club, a private club established in 2005, is named for that moment. Nicklaus designed the course, which stretches to 7,474 yards. The course is built without houses around to create a specific experience for the player, the course hosted the 2021 World Golf Championship in addition to the 2015 NCAA Championship.
