When it comes to golf in Florida, one month stands out as better than the rest — and that month is March. As the Sunshine State reaches its peak stretch of weather, Florida transforms into a golfer's paradise. Whether you're a local or planning your next getaway, March offers an ideal combination of temperatures, course conditions, and event excitement that makes it the best month for golf in Florida.

1. Perfect Weather for Golf

Florida’s weather in March is nothing short of ideal for outdoor activities like golf.

The first day of a golf tournament isn't typically the most memorable, but this morning (Thursday 2/27), history was made at PGA National. Jake Knapp (who finished tied for 4th at last year's Cognizant Classic the week after earning his first PGA TOUR win at the Mexico Open) has shot a bogey-free, 12-under-par, 59. With that, Knapp becomes only the 14th player on TOUR to ever play a round under 60 and the first to do it at an event in the state of Florida. He also broke the single-round record for this tournament, which was 61, set by Brian Harman in 2012.

Getting his first-ever PGA TOUR win this morning here at PGA National in Palm Beach Gardens, Austin Eckroat has clinched an exemption into THE PLAYERS Championship, The Masters, and the PGA Championship along with being fully exempt through the 2026 PGA TOUR season. After a sudden midday Sunday storm brought about two and a half inches of rain in about as many hours, play resumed at around 4:00 pm, only to be stopped at sunset (6:23 pm) and restarted this morning. On Sunday, Eckroat made a late-in-the-day surge to reach -15 and eek ahead of Erik Van Rooyen, who had finished his round just before sunset at 14 under par.
