TPC Scottsdale - The Champions Course

Great experience and we will definitely be back!

Make me want to continue to play TPC. From the fellows that greet you on arrival to the young lady at the outside bar, it’s first-class all the way. Highly recommended!

Felt a lot like other courses in the area that come in cheaper than what a TPC branded course commands in price.

A few fun holes. #5 has a horseshoe fairway surrounded by bunkers and you have to carry over water. #15 is a very reachable par 4. #1 and #18 have water running along the left side of the fairway. Outside of that, there's no great elevation changes, or views that you wouldn't get elsewhere.

The course plays long and narrow, the rough was dead rye (?) grass like most courses in the area with overseeded painted fairway grass. The rough around the greens was dead thick bermuda that was difficult to chip in. Greens were smooth and fast throughout. Traps had a good amount of sand. Tee boxes and fairways were cut to good lengths.

Hot dogs at the turn were $10. No provided water bottles in cooler. Carts had GPS but ended up locking when I went 4 feet off the cart path to get out of the way for other carts, then would not unlock.

Best thing about the course was the pace of play. Finished in under 4 hours. The price tag keeps the Bluetooth speaker crowd out.

Lots of divots in the fairways (well played) and golfers should repair to help out. Greens in good shape and pace of play excellent 3:50 hr round on a sunny day. Great staff in all areas. Would recommend the course

I really have nothing bad to say about this course. Honestly wished we booked Stadium but Champions course was also unreal. Man when you play subpar courses in the Greater Toronto Area, Ontario, Canada, you really appreciate the immaculate greens at premium courses. We thought the fairways were fake grass.. too green and too perfect. Shoutout to the groundskeepers, they do an amazing job. But with the Canadian dollar where its at, we spent 540 bucks each on 3 rounds of golf... It's very expensive. The Waste Management is an instant classic now but TPC and everyone else are pricing out and cashing in. Also seeing private jets land every 10 minutes throughout the round shows how unaffordable golf really is... just like hockey in Canada. Again awesome course, just ranting about how these sport's are not for the common folk yet its the most beautiful game out there which I wish everyone could enjoy.

The TPC Courses are always a fun place to play, and can both challenge and entertain. Brother course to Stadium, which is getting ready for the WM Event, it is a nice layout. If you are a easily distracted golfer, the course is in the path of the Scottsdale Airport, so lots of noise as the jets dropped in for a landing.

Staff was very supportive, and helpful, and the Drink Cart had smalls of Jamison, so now one of my favorite courses!!!

I was really looking forward to playing the course and felt a 1:06 tee time should have allowed completion of 18 holes with time to spare. Unfortunately the two groups ahead of us were obviously poor players, even though they were playing a scramble. They played off the black tees, but barely hit it past the white tees on numerous holes. The "cart path only" situation only made it worse. As we were running out of daylight, they continued to dilly dally and held up several groups that clearly thought they would finish before darkness. Our group finished around 6 pm, in the dark, and as others came in they were upset. The course itself was fun to play, challenging yet enjoyable. The staff was great, friendly. The amenities were very nice also. Recommend the rangers enforce a pace of play given the amount of money people are paying. Perhaps even set a minimum handicap to play.

Perfect place to play gold. Little brother to Stadium course but super conditions.

The design and condition of the course are excellent. Service was friendly and helpful. The only negative was that we had to keep the golf buggy to the paths at all times because of the overseeding and watering of the fairways. This meant that play was slower and judging distance and club selection more time consuming. But carrying would have been feasible as distances from greens to tees were not long. Of course the weather was perfect which is why we came to Scottsdale in November from the UK where it is now cold, wet and muddy!
