Grand Cypress Golf Club - Links Course
Played On 10/16/2017Beautiful course in the ‘Old Course’ style
We had a great time playing this Old Course replica. Greens were top dressed probably after punching a few weeks ago. They ran true - not lightning fast. Fairways in great shape and thankfully wide (mostly). Green undulations tough to read. Putting from off greens likely a little slower than in Scotland. Regardless of the quality of the golf game, the clubhouse and restaurant were magnificent. Food was highest quality and ample portions for a reasonable price. Highly recommend course and club.
Tiffany Greens Golf Club
Played On 10/22/2016Fun. Robert Trent Jones, Jr. courses
Tiffany Greens is a relatively modern course on which the PGA once played a few tournaments in the early 2000s. It isn't quite up to those standards now but has an interesting layout around a couple of creeks, with good greens. We played in mid-October and the grass was just starting to go dormant but still very playable. Staff was helpful in storing our bags since we went straight to the course from the airport. Rental clubs were fair - clean though no sets were complete. One set was missing a putter but the ranger made a special trip to get one.
The bunkers are being redone so those were all to be treated as ground under repair. They are working to make the course more like its original layout, which I applaud.
All in all, a good time and a course I'd recommend again any time of year.
The Phoenician Golf Club
Played On 04/09/2015Great condition, tight layout
My wife and I played the course for the first time. The course conditions were excellent - grass was in great shape for the end of the high season. It was difficult to follow the course direction and know what to expect. This led to several delays going up to scout whet the next shot should be. The course is to some extent 'shoehorned' in to a small area so fairways are adjacent to each other. Course is short, so the tight conditions and difficult greens offer the course protection. Hole 8 on the Desert 9 was restricted to the front tees which was disappointing. Price seemed slightly high for the layout. Still had a good time and would play again as it should be much more playable once you know the layout.
