Let’s cheer on Jake and John as they play for something bigger than the game!

Last week WGV members teamed up with staff and Flagler College golfers for a unique twist at the WGV Homecoming College Am! A big shoutout to the Flagler College golf team for making this event one to remember!

👏 We’re proud to share that Miguel Segura from our King & Bear Agronomy team was recently recognized as our Employee of Excellence! His hard work and dedication make a big impact every day.

What a great evening! Last night we hosted a Meet & Greet with Pace Anderson, our new Director of Agronomy. Pace joined World Golf Village in July and now oversees agronomy operations for both the King & Bear and Slammer & Squire.

With nearly 15 years of experience — from TPC Sawgrass to The Landings Golf & Athletic Club — he brings championship-level expertise, eco-friendly practices, and a passion for delivering world-class playing conditions. We’re thrilled to have Pace on the team!
