What once was a cow pasture in quiet Myakka City in rural east Manatee County is on its way to becoming a golf destination, says David Leadbetter, one of the sports leading instructors.
The course leading that charge, says Leadbetter, is Soleta Golf Club. A groundbreaking for the course, at its construction site off Singletary Road, was held Dec. 5.
“When you think of Sarasota, you don’t really think of golf,” says Leadbetter, who most likely doesn't know that Soleta isn't even in the same county as Sarasota. “This project here alone — I know there’s other ones going to be built as well — is going to put Sarasota on the golfing map.”
