When it comes to a world-class athlete like Mike Trout, the 34-year-old center fielder for the Los Angeles Angels who recently hit his 400th career home run, you might imagine golf is just a hobby, something to take his mind off baseball. But Trout is hoping it’s his reputation as a future Hall of Famer that propels him into his next career: South Jersey golf impresario.
In April 2026, Trout will open an exclusive and amenity-heavy golf course and club, Trout National—The Reserve, in Vineland, New Jersey, near his hometown of Plainville, about two hours south of New York City. The club will feature an 18-hole course designed by Tiger Woods and a reversible short course, known as “the Bullpen,” that will be illuminated and playable at night. The course opens to members for preview play today. While Trout declines to discuss fees or membership criteria, he says the club will cap its roll at just 227 members.
