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.

TPC Scottsdale Championship course

Loved the course and the service. Only one thing that needs to change. Don't sell cold frozen stale muffins. A beautiful place like TPC can,serve nice warm fresh muffins that can,easily be made each morning. Charge that little extra and it will go a long way. Had a wonderful day.

Great Staff!

It is amazing how different the staff is here. They really seem to love their jobs. Very few other courses in the valley have this. Most of the time it is some punk teenager that makes it obvious that he would rather be at home playing video games.

the course was great! loved the round!

Awesome round but surprised with debris on greens

First time coming out to play TPC Scottsdale. Ended up playing the past 2 days in a row with a buddy. Started around 3pm both days. They let us take two coolers and there’s ice water every 3 holes so it made the heat much more bearable. Was definitely a super fun course and pretty great conditions for one of the hottest summers in American history.

Only flaw I can point out is I was pretty surprised with the amount of leaves and blow down on the first 2 greens. They had us start on hole 10 and the green, 2 days in a row was absolutely littered with leaves. Seems like a simple leaf blower would prevent this. Also, not the courses fault but people need to take their tracks in the bunkers. Multiple bunkers had lots of foot prints and uneven sand.

Course was wipe open but ended up catching up to the group in front of us pretty quickly and waiting on them, probably 15 handicaps hitting from the black tee’s. We ran out of sand 2 days in a row because we were filling in everyone’s divots hoping to keep the course in great shape for the next time we play

Hot & wet...

The course has a nice layout and the greens are fast and true, however on this hot (100+) morning the fairways, approaches and low spots were all soggy and difficult to hit consistent shots off of. But on the other hand the greens were firm and difficult to hold. I understand the need to protect the course on such hot days with heavy watering, but nonetheless it made for difficult playing conditions. Would certainly play here again...

Another round at champions

Fun track. Must hit your approach shots well to score. Greens were quick. Bermuda rough was punishing.

Injured

Tore ankle up on a hill and the team took great care of me as the swelling was large and painful. Ryan went way over and above in doing all he could to make sure I was as comfortable as possible.
