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.

Golf at TPC Champions

We always make it a point to play this course when we are in Arizona. Always like to sit and have a cocktail after the round on the patio but was a bit disappointed this year. There was a private party and we weren’t able to be outside.

Great layout

Played for the first time with my nephew; the course was in great condition, even after the gullywasher storms during last week’s Phoenix Open. The starter promised a great layout, excellent greens and a superior value to the Stadium course, and he delivered! Practice range is very good, the putting green is enormous, having plenty of holes and area for folks to focus on their own stuff. Staff was very welcoming and friendly. The refreshment cart came around at least three times during the round. We started at 2 and finished after dusk about 6:25, and one group finished after us as well. You do get great views of the McDowell mountains and numerous planes on approach to the Scottsdale airport.

Unbelievably Well Maintained

This course is by far the best I’ve ever played. The fairways were in excellent shape, items in the pro shop are reasonably priced and the staff are great and friendly.

Really happy that I golfed it!

Really enjoyed!

The course has a variety of tees for different levels of play. While the rough isn’t watered, the fairways and greens were in great shape. The pace of play was 4.25 hrs which was right on schedule. Very friendly staff and nice facilities. While it’s not the Pro TPC course which is across the road, I felt the course was reasonably priced for the area.

Kudos to TPC staff, not so much to GolfNow

We chose to go to the course to observe conditions given it had rained hard for 12+ hours. We were advised that there was considerable standing water on the course and greens. TPC graciously consented to waiving the greens fees, but could not adjust the $55 booking fee from GolfNow. Response from GolfNow to our request for equitable return of our fee was "only if the course is closed". In my opinion the course should have been considered closed by GolfNow. So thumbs down on GolfNow and kudos to the TPC staff for exercising good judgment and treating us fairly.

Amendment: I responded to GolfNow's initial rejection of my request for a refund and urged that they check with teh course. They did that and approved the refund. The moral of the story is to pursue the right action and they will respond in a positive fashion. And this action earns a reversal of my thumbs down; a hearty thumbs up to GolfNow for being open to doing right by their members.

Where your dreams come true

My son and myself played the championship course on our family vacation. From the staff to the grass, our experience was all of what we dreamed of. Every hole was pristine! Great job !
