Designed by Jay Morrish and Tom Weiskopf, The Stadium Course at TPC Scottsdale was purpose-built to host the PGA Tour's Phoenix Open, and it has done so since 1987. Designed with high drama in mind, the venue is well known as one of the most exciting and fan-friendly in all of golf, which includes a thrilling finishing stretch that begins with the risk-reward 15th hole. The course plays to over 7,200 yards from the tournament tees, but golfers who play the course during their Arizona golf vacation will find the layout has more forgiving fairways than many other area desert courses. The TPC experience includes one of the most encompassing practice areas in the destination, as well as grand clubhouse that includes the Toro Restaurant and Rum Bar. TPC Scottsdale is also home to the Champions Course, which plays out of a separate facility nearby.

A Great Track

Thoroughly enjoy plating this course from the time of arrival until the final putt. The staff are super friendly and go out of their to assist. The course was in perfect shape and setup up for all level of golfers based on the tee block chosen. This was the second time playing the Stadium course and can't wait for the opportunity to play it again.

Awesome

We were surprised about the very beautiful planted islands and waste areas. The fairways and greens are in best conditions. For this and for the popularity of this course we think the high greenfee rate($165,- per Person) is ok. But The marshal on the course stressed us although we were fast enough. This is unecessery. And the cooler on the card was filled with ice but no water bottles were offered. On every other much cheaper courses in Arizona we always got complementary water bottles. This was also surprising for us.

Great golf

I have been wanting to play this course for a while. Nice course. Lots of grass. Good pace of play.

Course was in good condition. Staff was great. Summer rates still seemed pricey compared to other courses.

I played this course 2 weekends in a row with a friend. Rates were very fair. My only complaint is that I played poorly on this course. Ugh. It was in great shape and we're nearing the end of summer. Every member of the staff was genuinely friendly.

Hot but Fun

109oF is usually unbearable unless you're playing the stadium course in Scottsdale. Being a local, we watching the pros play and that is pretty cool - playing it is even better.

All things considered, its not an overly difficult course if you can stay out of the rough.

We played for $90. I know that it goes for like twice that much in the winter. Other than its PGA pedigree, I don't know why its soooo expensive outside of summer months.

Will play it again... next summer.

Great course

Awesome course experience. Course is in great condition.

On a different note, got to course an hour early. Very few players, but staff wanted to charge me extra $25 to go out,before my tee time even tho there was only one group that went out during that time.

TPC Scottsdale with Big Floss

Snowbird friend from Wisconsin came back mid-August and wanted to play golf "somewhere we don't get to play in the winter", so I booked TPC Scottsdale Stadium course. He shot Par on #16, I got a bogie, no cheering or booing!! We had a great time and enjoyed our round. Course is in great shape.

A good time.

Course was in good condition given the summer weather. Greens were starting to come back from summer aerating. Staff was friendly and pace of play was good. Great value for an afternoon in August.

Great time but miscommunication online

Great PGA course! However, with my GolfNow gift certificate, TPC Scottsdale charged me a "booking fee" which was not communicated online when I booked. I ended up paying over $120, when online the fee to play was only $69.00. Very confused. Still, I would play the course again. I drove the green and parred the 17th hole! Rickie, what happened???

Bucket list

Myself, brother, and our two sons played yesterday. What a treat! I have walked the course many times attending the Waste Management so to actually golf the course was always on my bucket list. Well TPC Scottsdale did not disappoint. Everything form the staff to the cart guys were outstanding. We all four just had a outstanding day playing the course. Course was in great shape. Greens were not as fast as we would have hoped but good.

The Holy Grail

This course is only for the best of the best. If you are not a single digit handicap, don't bother playing from the tips. If you are a weekend golfer who likes to play resort courses and take mulligans every other hole, this course is not for you, leave this course for the big boys and the purists.

Pja14,

We appreciate you taking the time to give us your feedback. I'm not sure when you played but we hope you enjoyed your time at TPC Scottsdale. We have two great golf courses and each has its risk/reward shots and challenging holes. Of course, the Stadium is most recognized and considered the "bucket list" course with some exceptional finishing holes 15-18. We do recommend golfers play the tee box appropriate for their handicap; and one probably shouldn't be playing from the tips without a single digit handicap. We hope to see you again soon.

Best Regards,

TPC Scottsdale Management Team
