Both are teaming up to build a new private golf club near Trout’s hometown in southern New Jersey.
They are planning to name it Trout National – The Reserve, which is designed by Woods and his firm, TGR Design.
The course is set to open in 2025 in Vineland, New Jersey — Trout’s 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡place.
Trout National – The Reserve will include a practice range, short-game area, clubhouse, lodging, restaurant, and a wedding chapel, per a news release.
The 31-year-old Trout grew up watching Woods and believes it’s “surreal” that he’s working with the golfing legend.
“My favorite golfer growing up obviously was Tiger,” Trout said.
“I thought it would be pretty cool to reach out.
“We reached out, got a positive vibe when we mentioned it and got his team down to the site.
“Once Tiger’s team came down to the site, they loved it.
“It’s surreal.
“I mean, it’s friggin’ Tiger!”
The price of the golf project has yet to be disclosed.
The three-time MVP told Sports Illustrated that he has a handicap of seven or eight.
Trout also displayed his power in a viral clip of him launching a drive at a Top Golf in 2020.
