Champion Lakes Golf Course
About Champion Lakes Golf Course
Champion Lakes Golf Course is a public, par-72 layout in McAllen. It measures 5,788 yards from the middle tees and stretches to 6,748 yards from the back. Wide, rolling fairways of "419" Bermuda are framed by common Bermuda rough and mounding that lends parts of the course a links-like feel, and fourteen man-made lakes come into play while opening up broad views. Newer tees and tree plantings have added to the character of the design.

The practice area includes a lighted driving range running 350 yards with eleven target greens, teeing grounds at both ends of the practice fairway, a short-game area, a 10,000-square-foot putting green, and artificial chipping and putting greens.
