The Field

A developmental field that lives on the road.

Korn Ferry Tour pros travel light and travel constantly — chasing a PGA Tour card without the private drivers and handlers of the main tour. For a week in Lakewood Ranch that makes dependable ground transport genuinely useful: on-time to an early tee time, standby through the round, and a clean run back to the hotel or SRQ. We run executive SUVs and Sprinter vans built around the tournament clock.

  • Player and caddie transfers, tee-time timed
  • Early-morning and post-round standby
  • Host-hotel to Lakewood National each day
  • SRQ and Sarasota FBO meet-and-greet

The Base

One plan for the host-hotel week.

Most of the tournament works out of the Lakewood Ranch host and nearby hotels, minutes from Lakewood National. We build a single itinerary for the base — daily transfers to and from the course, off-property dinners, and departure-day airport timing — so competitors, caddies and any traveling connections move as one coordinated operation instead of a week of separate rides.

  • Daily host-hotel transfers to the course
  • Off-property dining and evening runs
  • Departure-day SRQ and TPA timing
  • A single point of contact all week

Spectators

Attend Florida’s Korn Ferry stop the easy way.

The Suncoast Classic is a knowledgeable, manageable spectator event — the best chance in Florida to watch tomorrow’s PGA Tour stars up close. A chauffeured drop at the entrance skips the parking entirely: door-to-door from Sarasota, Lakewood Ranch, St. Petersburg or the airports, and a pickup on your schedule when you have seen enough golf.

  • Door-to-door from Sarasota and Lakewood Ranch
  • Drop and collect at the spectator entrance
  • Foursomes and groups in one SUV or Sprinter
  • No parking lot, no wait

LECOM Suncoast Classic Transportation — FAQ

What is the LECOM Suncoast Classic and where is it played?
The LECOM Suncoast Classic is a Korn Ferry Tour event — the PGA Tour’s official developmental circuit — and it is the only Korn Ferry stop in Florida. It is played each early April at Lakewood National Golf Club, a Fazio design in Lakewood Ranch near Sarasota, and its place on the schedule is secured through 2029. That gives players, sponsors and fans a fixed spring date, and pre-booked car service the smooth way in and out.
Do you handle player and caddie transport for the Suncoast Classic?
Yes, and it is the heart of what we do here. The Korn Ferry field is travel-heavy — developing pros moving week to week without the entourage of a PGA Tour star — so reliable, on-time transport between the host hotel, the course and the airport matters. We run executive SUVs and Sprinter vans for players and caddies, with early-morning tee-time timing and standby through the round.
Is there host-hotel shuttle service?
Yes. We run the daily rhythm between the host and nearby Lakewood Ranch hotels and Lakewood National, timed to the tournament schedule — competitors and caddies to their tee times, back after the round, and out to dinner. One coordinated plan for the base, rather than a scramble of separate rides.
Which airport is best for Lakewood National?
Sarasota–Bradenton International (SRQ) is the closest, about 25 to 35 minutes from Lakewood National, and it is the natural gateway for the field and for spectators. Tampa International (TPA) is roughly an hour out for national connections. We meet both, plus private arrivals at the Sarasota FBO.
Do you serve spectators as well as players?
Yes. The Suncoast Classic draws a modest, knowledgeable spectator crowd rather than a major-championship crush, so a chauffeured drop at the entrance is an easy, low-fuss way to attend — no parking-lot wait, door-to-door from Sarasota, Lakewood Ranch or the airports, and a pickup when you are ready to leave.
