The work behind the majors started here
Established in 2011, Butch Harmon Floridian has become one of the most sought-after training facilities in the world used by Cameron Smith and Dustin Johnson.
Home to Claude Harmon III and his team, Butch Harmon Floridian has seen Johnson (2), Brooks Koepka (5) and Ernie Els (1) win all four majors. All told, these professionals and others have combined to win 68 times across all major tours including PGA Tour, LIV, DP, and the LPGA since 2011.

The call players make when it matters most.
When Cameron Smith — a major champion and former World No. 2 — needed to find his game again, he left the coach he'd worked with since he was nine years old and came to Claude Harmon III. Weeks later, he made his first major-championship weekend in six tries and was in the mix on Sunday.
That's the pattern. When the best players in the world reach a turning point, they come here. Dustin Johnson. Cameron Smith. A roster that has won all four majors. The work is the same whether you're chasing a tour card or breaking 80: we study how you actually play before we ever touch your swing.
Claude Harmon III
Claude Harmon III is one of the most accomplished coaches in modern golf, and the third generation of the most influential teaching family the game has known. His grandfather, Claude Harmon, won the 1948 Masters. His father, Butch Harmon, coached Tiger Woods through the most dominant stretch of his career. Claude carries that lineage forward with a style all his own — new-school concepts delivered in an old-school, no-clutter way.
Ranked 5th on Golf Digest's 2024–2025 Best Teachers in America and a Golf Magazine Top 100 Instructor, Claude has lowered scores for tour winners, celebrities, and amateurs of every level. He's a regular contributor to Sky Sports Golf and hosts the Son of a Butch podcast.

Claude Harmon Performance Experience
Claude Harmon Performance Experience
Claude Harmon III believes that golf is a simple game that challenges even our most brilliant and or athletic players. If that describes yourself and your golf, well we think there’s something here for you. To work with one of the top coaches in the game with a family history of success that will never be matched, is a dream of most aspiring players. Having achieved the “Coaching Slam” while helping players win 8 majors and 68 professional titles, The Claude Harmon Performance Experience is a day of one-on-you instruction hosted by Claude Harmon III. Spending the day with Claude is normally reserved for the current stable of tour players like Cameron Smith or Dustin Johnson but now you can reserve time to yourself at Butch Harmon Floridian. The CH3PE includes:
Total Assessment and improvement plan.
Fundamental work on full swing, short game and putting.
Performance drills designed to help you score.
Course management and playing lesson on the Fazio and or Harmon Courses
Plan on four-five hours of instruction for an experience. Don’t worry, we will have a couple breaks in there for lunch, etc.
