The 2023 Butterfield Bermuda Championship will return to its permanent venue, Port Royal Golf Course in Southampton. The tournament will be held from November 9 to 12 and has a purse of $6.5 million.

Port Royal Golf Course has been hosting the Bermuda Championship since it started in 2019. The golf course was founded in 1965 and was opened to the public in 1970. In 2019, it was renovated.

It is around 6,842 yards and was designed by Robert Trent Jones. It's a 71-par golf course that has 18 holes.

Port Royal Golf Course was originally founded in 1965 under the chairmanship of Mr Reginald Tucker. The course was designed by a renowned golf architect, Robert Trent Jones.

Butterfield Bermuda Championship made its debut at the venue in 2019. In 2023 the golf course will again host the tournament.

Brendon Todd won the inaugural edition of the tournament by registering a four-stroke victory over Harry Higgs. Brian Gay clinched the trophy in 2020, followed by Lucas Herbert who won it in 2021. Seamus Power is the defending champion of the PGA Tour tournament.

Speaking about the venue, Todd said in 2019 (via NBC Sports):

“It’s one of the shorter ones we play on the Tour and it forces everybody to hit the ball with the same clubs off the tee because there’s cross bunkers and hazards in certain places.”
