Tiger Woods’ PopStroke sets opening date for Tampa location

PopStroke Entertainment Group will open its sixth PopStroke facility, and fifth in Florida, on Feb. 17 in Lutz’s Cypress Creek Town Center, at 25297 Sierra Center Blvd.

The golf entertainment centers feature putting courses designed by Tiger Woods, whose company, TGR Ventures, is a co-owner of PopStroke Entertainment Group, along with Greg Bartoli and TaylorMade Golf Co. The PopStroke concept debuted in Fort Myers in 2020 and expanded to Sarasota, Orlando, Port St. Lucie and Orlando over the next two years. Additional locations are being developed in Glendale and Scottsdale, Arizona, and Delray Beach.

“The shape of this property allowed us to get very creative and build one of our most unique set of courses,” Woods states in a news release. “I am thrilled to have PopStroke join the Tampa community with recreational and professional golfers and people of all ages and interests. PopStroke offers a fun way to enjoy time with family and friends.”

PopStroke features 18-hole putting courses built with synthetic turf, incorporating undulations, fairways, bunkers and rough as seen on traditional golf courses. The Tiger Red Course challenges experienced putters with strong contouring and tricky hole locations. The Tiger Black Course has softened contours to create an ideal course for families and anyone new to golf. The venue also features an outdoor dining area with a full menu, craft beer, wine, signature cocktails, an ice cream parlor, an outdoor game area and a playground.

“We are very excited to introduce our unique entertainment experience to the Wesley Chapel-Tampa community,” Bartoli states in the release. “PopStroke is about bringing friends together to enjoy the great game of golf in a fun, dynamic and stress-free environment while enjoying elevated food, beverage, ice cream and a host of other amenities. There is no doubt that the growing and vibrant mix of families, seniors and young professionals in Wesley Chapel will make it an ideal location for PopStroke as we expand throughout Florida and beyond.”
