Waterford Golf Club Offers 27 Holes, Three Distinct Nines in Venice By Scott Dolan Waterford Golf Club is the kind of place that reminds you golf is supposed to be fun — even when your scorecard says otherwise. Tucked into Venice, this semi-private club features 27 holes designed by Ted McAnlis, with three distinct nines: Turnberry, Gleneagles and Sawgrass. The beauty of Waterford is that players can mix and match the courses, creating three different 18-hole experiences.
