TPC Scottsdale has earned a host of honors, including a spot among the top three Arizona golf facilities for service and among the "Top 50 Golf and Resort Destinations in the World," the latter by no less than Conde Nast Traveler.

The Champions Course at TPC Scottsdale sits where the Desert Course did, but offers the thrills of golfing a new course, this one designed by architect Randy Heckenkemper, who did his best to fit the new golf course into the untouched desert land that surrounds it.

The Champions Course at TPC Scottsdale rivals its better-known sibling golf course, the Stadium Course, with all the good looks and good golf one might expect in the Scottsdale area.

Good course for under 100

Played early morning. Told was teeing off back nine .... straight into the sun. Course in good condition but first few holes standing water in hiting areas due to night watering. My friend a 3 hdcp, wanted to play tips but no tee markers present for them.
Overall a good layout with fairly forgiving fairways and no blind shots.
Would play again but request tee off from 1st tee if early AM due to sun.

docgrainger,

Thank you for taking the time to give us your comments regarding your experience on the Champions Course. It's not often, but we do on occasion have a double tee start. I apologize we did not have the back tee markers for your friend and that you experienced some wet conditions. Your feedback is helpful and has been forwarded to our maintenance department. I hope you have another opportunity to play TPC Scottsdale. Conditions have been really good and we expect them to stay that way as we move into the shoulder season.

Thank you,
TPC Scottsdale Management Team

All was good...

We had a great time...and really enjoyed the course. The only negative, was some of the construction along the side of the fairways where they were digging out a new sewer line
Other than that, it was a really fun golf course.

Challenging desert-style course

My round was played on April 8th and the weather was superb. This was my 3rd time playing the Champions course and unfortunately my worst round due to shoulder injury, but enjoyed the beautiful course in any case. Only complaint was with the temporary construction barricades affecting several holes. Pace of play was a bit slow. Greens were smooth and fast.

Excellent course

The TPC Champions course and the staff were excellent. The pace of play, however, could have been a lot better. Overall it was still an excellent experience and I’ll definitely play TPC Champions again.

The greens were in great shape along with the fairways. Watching the private jets fly over was cool.

Bucket list

Enjoyed the experience with a HighSchool
Classmate from Iowa. First time for both of us. Took advantage of the twilight
pricing, had to play the last hole in the dark.
