Executive Summit - Golf and Tours

ISEA GOLF TOURNAMENTS AND TOURS

Take the high road - literally - at the Westin La Cantera's two championship golf courses, which occupy the highest ground in San Antonio and offer challenging golf with spectacular views of the surrounding Hill Country.

The 7,001-yard Resort Course was home of the PGA Texas Open from 1995 to 2009.  In the words of a golf writer, "Some holes seem like a game of 'can-you-top-this,' with dramatic elevation changes, carries over ravines, and risk-reward opportunities. But La Cantera pulls this off without being gimmicky because it's the roller-coaster property, not the design, that causes the drama." 

The newer Palmer Course, designed by golf legend Arnold Palmer, is a par-71, 7000-yard layout located on 225 acres. The course includes several signature holes, including the par 3 No. 4 hole with dramatic waterfalls along the entire front of the green and a tribute to Palmer’s late wife: The Winnie Palmer Memorial Bridge.

ISEA's Executive Summit offers two tournaments.  On Monday afternoon, we host the annual scramble tournament, a fun outing for golfers of all skill levels, in a format that gives everyone a chance to shine.  Tuesday afternoon the serious golfers compete for the O’Donnell Trophy in the ISEA handicap tournament.   Prizes are awarded for low net and low gross scores.
