Ridgewood Lakes Golf Club ("RWL") is a par 72 championship semi- private golf course designed by Ted McAnlis which opened for business in 1994 and was rejuvenated and renovated in September 2007. Upon its opening, it won the unique distinction of winning public golf course of the year in 1994 by Golf Digest. It was named one of the top ten public access Florida golf courses by Florida Golf Magazine in 2001. 

The golf course is sculpted from lush, rolling ranch land and features water and/or wetlands on all 18 holes. Generous landing areas, receptive greens and a minimum of forced carries make it challenging yet fair and playable. Five sets of tees ranging from 5,200 yards to 7,100 yards are made ready each day to challenge players of any skill level!

Ridgewood Lakes Golf & Country Club is located at 200 Eagle Ridge Drive, Davenport, 863-424-8688, Website ridgewoodlakesgolf.com. 

General Manager: Jason DeWildt, PGA. Head Golf Professional: Chuck McLoone. Superintendent: Dustin Plemons. Chef: Allen Worma In September 2007, Ridgewood Lakes was made even better with the addition of Champions Turf greens. In the summer of 2009 Ridgewood Lakes Clubhouse was renovated with new bathrooms, new pro shop, and a newly painted clubhouse. The renovation was so successful that the PGA Tour held the 2008 PODS Championship of Tampa qualifying event at the site and in November will host the Futures Tour Qualifying School.

A new program called Golf For The Fun Of It started in the summer of 2008. This program was designed to introduce people to the game of golf. This six-week program is absolutely free, and covers all aspects of the game, from etiquette and rules of golf to the fundamentals of the golf swing. At the end of the program comes a 9 hole scramble and graduation.
