Course Report
The Silver Fox was formerly known as the 'Great White Course' before major renovations and rebranding under the Trump National Doral name.
About
The Silver Fox Course at Trump National Doral is a par-71, 7006-yard championship layout designed by Robert von Hagge, Jerry Pate, and Bruce Devlin. Known for its marble-white bunkers and extensive water hazards on 16 holes, it challenges golfers with narrow landing areas, elevated greens, and true Bermuda surfaces.
Caddie Tip
Accuracy is everything at Silver Fox. Play conservatively off the tee on water-lined holes, especially through the 'Bermuda Triangle' stretch (holes 7-9), where aggressive lines often result in lost balls. Favor aiming for the center of greens and trust firm Bermuda turf for short game control.
The Main Challenge
Silver Fox presents a relentless challenge through prevalent water hazards and tight fairway corridors. The signature Bermuda Triangle stretch (holes 7-9) is especially infamous for swallowing errant shots. Success requires precise drives and calculated approach play, particularly to elevated putting surfaces defended by bold bunkering.
The Good
Golfers rave about Silver Fox's dramatic water features and visually striking marble-white bunkers, which give each hole memorable character and demand strategic shotmaking. The elevated greens and immaculate Bermuda surfaces impress both resort guests and tournament players looking for a true challenge.
The Not So Good
Some guests express a desire for better signage and clearer yardage markers, especially for first-time players during resort busy periods. Additionally, the extensive water hazards can lead to longer round times and lost balls for mid- to high-handicap golfers seeking a slightly less punishing experience.
Signature Hole:
#
7
The 7th hole is a 183-yard par 3 featuring an intimidating island green, requiring a precise tee shot fully over water. Surrounded by striking marble-white bunkers, this hole tests both nerve and distance control, and stands as the visual centerpiece of the Silver Fox layout.
Clubhouse
Expect luxury locker rooms, a comprehensive golf shop featuring premium apparel and equipment, upscale restaurants, lounges, and spa facilities. The resort's main clubhouse delivers exceptional hospitality, player dining, and professional event support.
