St. Augustine, Fla. (Nov. 1, 2010) - The King & Bear golf course, managed by Honours Golf, is a historic collaboration between World Golf Hall of Fame & Museum members Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer.

About The King & Bear
Located in St. Augustine, Fla., the World Golf Village is home to the World Golf Hall of Fame, as well as two championship golf courses, the Slammer & Squire and the King & Bear.

The King & Bear golf course is a true collaboration of two of golf's greatest legends, Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus. The two Hall of Famers have collaborated on a truly remarkable golf course of unparalleled beauty, challenge and design. Set among pristine lakes, beautiful Loblolly pines, and stately oak trees, each hole of this championship layout contains characteristics of both players. It is a driver's" course, stretching over 7,200 yards; which should come as no surprise as both Palmer and Nicklaus wielded awesome power games in their primes. Since its inception in 2000, the King & Bear has hosted the Legends of Golf, a Champions Tour event; a Shell's Wonderful World of Golf match between Palmer and Nicklaus; and Qualifying Schools for the PGA TOUR and Champions Tour.
