Tiger Woods, Mike Trout unveil routing for Trout National in New Jersey

On Friday, Tiger Woods’ TGR Design unveiled the planned routing of Trout National – The Reserve in Vineland, New Jersey, the course that Woods is designing with 11-time MLB All-Star Mike Trout.

The long-awaited reveal was accompanied by a video showing Woods meeting up with Trout on-site along with drone footage of the planned layout, as well scenes of heavy equipment already in the process of sculpting the proposed design.

“Some of my favorite golf experiences have been ones that have challenged my game while still having fun, and that’s what we wanted to create at Trout National – The Reserve,” the 32-year-old Trout, who played center field for the Los Angeles Angels, said in a statement. “Tiger, John (Ruga, a Millville landowner/developer) and I walked hole by hole, and this course will do just that. Our vision and his design is creating something special here in my hometown.”

Trout National – The Reserve is billed as a par-72 layout that will play to 7,455 yards. The Woods’ design, which will also include a short course design, was originally announced in March and is slated to open in 2025.

“Mike and John found a site with a lot of character to make some outstanding golf holes,” Woods added in the statement. “The sandy and diverse terrain has so many great natural features that have given us a lot of options on how to create a world-class golf course.”
