At Bay Hill, you play the venue of the Bay Hill Invitational, one of the longest standing stops on the PGA Tour. It is also Arnold Palmer's winter home The front 9 of the Big Course is the more scenic and dramatic of the two 9's. It features the half-moon-shaped par 5 5th around a lake where John Daly took an 18 trying to hit his drive over the lake from the forward tees to the green. The back nine is less scenic, as the houses seem to be on top of a few of the holes. It includes the 400-yard uphill 10th; the 430-yard par 4 11th to a long, narrow green hovering over a lake; the short, straight par 4 13th of less than 400 yards over another pond to a tight green; and No. 15, a 225-yard uphill par 3 to a severely sloped green. For all of its notoriety, Bay Hill remains a course within a development, albeit a very high-end development. Six- and seven-figure homes on large lots are visible throughout
