Course Sections
Course Overview
Hey fellow golfers! If you haven't yet teed off at the TPC Scottsdale Champions Course, you're in for a treat. Nestled in the heart of Scottsdale, this gem offers a refreshing departure from its famed sibling, the Stadium Course. Opened back in 2007 and masterfully designed by Randy Heckenkemper, the Champions Course has quickly become a local favorite, known for hosting spirited rounds from PGA Tour Champions to qualifying scrambles for the Waste Management Phoenix Open.
What makes this course stand out? Think pristine Bermuda greens and breathtaking desert vistas that demand both strategy and precision. Take hole number 3, for example. This tricky par 5 wraps you around the natural desert landscape, challenging you to think two steps ahead and place your shots just right. And don't get me started on the risk-reward thrill of the short par 4 at hole 15, where water hazards are just waiting to test your accuracy.
A quick tip for first-timers: pay close attention to your club selection, especially where elevation changes and bunkers come into play. Here, it's all about accuracy over distance to navigate those narrow fairways and avoid the desert's natural hazards.
Whether you're planning a buddies' trip or a solo escape, the Champions Course is a must-play for a truly classic Scottsdale golf experience. Ready to take the challenge?
