Scottsdale,
AZ – June 2017 / Newsmaker Alert / Honours
Golf, a division of Troon®
the leader in golf course management, development, and marketing, has been
selected to manage Capital City Country Club, an 18-hole private country
club in Tallahassee, Florida.
Originally
opened in 1908 as The Tallahassee Country Club, Capital City Country Club
has a long and storied history. In 1936, the City of Tallahassee expanded
the then 9-hole course to the regulation 18-hole layout designed by famed
golf course architect A. W. Tillinghast. Today, the course is nestled in
beautiful rolling hills and covered by tall pines and large moss-draped
oaks, making it one of the most beautiful and natural settings in the South.

of the Tallahassee community for well over 100 years and now we are excited
to work with a great new partner in Troon’s Honours Golf to take the club
into a new chapter. Our members live our passion for golf and fellowship
every day and we are proud to have a new partner who shares those values.
The future of Capital City Country Club is in great hands with our new
partners at Honours Golf.”

and most elegant spaces in Tallahassee for wedding receptions, dinner dances,
banquets and other prestigious events. The club’s members enjoy three Laykold
(hard) courts and two Har-Tru (clay) courts, which are all lighted for
evening play in addition to an Olympic-size pool, giving members and guests
