TPC Scottsdale - The Champions Course

We had a very nice time until lightning struck when we were on hole 10. I asked for a rain check for the back 9 and was told they don’t do that, so that was a little disappointing and definitely affected the value score.

10/10

I really enjoy playing this course. Pace of play was unbearable. We spoke with the marshal and the young man did a great job moving them along. You will often encounter groups that are not proficient golfers and lack the understanding of ready golf.

Don’t waster your money on this vastly overpriced and overrated course. So many other options at this price point in the area. Told by Starter the pace of play was 4:15 and there were rangers monitoring play on the course. Called the pro shop twice asking for assistance, nobody ever showed up. Front nine took 2:50. No sand in the traps. Finished in complete darkness. Will never spend another dollar here again, Never been so disappointed in a high end golf course in my life. Complete money grab.

Over rated. Bunkers awful condition. A few holes contrived.

Played at 2:27pm, course was in excellent conditions, fairways were dry and running out. Greens were in perfect condition. We did have a number of holes that we waited on which maid it so we were in the dark of 17 and 18. Had we not had to wait it would have been likely we would complete the round in the light of day. All said the experience was excellent from the staff to the conditions. One complaint I might add would be that the pro shop was closed when we finished our round, would have been nice to know in order to look at some souvenirs.

The course was in fantastic shape! Practice facilities were good except the chipping green was closed for renovation. The staff was outstanding especially John our starter. Love the course and the twilight price. We teed off at 2:18 and just made it in before sunset. Nice rollout on the fairways and the greens were fairly fast as well, but not too fast. Overall, I was extremely pleased.

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.

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.

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!
