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.

Good but slow

We teed off at 2:45, almost 8pm we were still held up behind people with the group behind us rushing us. Way too crowded and really only were able to play 16 holes before dark with a 2:45 tee time. Other than the longest game I’ve ever played everything was great.

A lot of workers on the course.

For $100 a round nearing summer time, there was a lot of maintenance going on during game play. Quite a bit over priced.

First time in Scottsdale

Loved the course. It was in fine shape. I needed to have played a little more before attempting this one. The fairways were a little tight and the bunkers too deep and wide for my erratic swing. The course pro kept things moving along well and was friendly. I appreciate being paired up with a local player knowing the course layout.

Amazing Course

The course was amazing and the staff was very helpful. Pace of play was just under 4hrs for us. We tee’d off at 6:39am in a Wednesday with 4 people.

Not Impressed, expected more from a TPC Facility

Expected more. Minimal non course amenities. Poor stocked golf shop. Several Par 5’s were cart path only except there was no notification to this effect. Late in the hot day, couple of water containers were empty. Doubt I would play again.

Great Airport Course

The Champions course is great! Very well maintained and I would say moderate level difficulty. Scottsdale Airport is right next to it so small planes fly very low overhead; this is very cool but not distracting.

Great course

Course was in awesome condition. Greens were perfect. Layout can be tough so you definitely have to manage your game around this course. The scenery is awesome. Can see why many feel the champions course is superior to the stadium course.

Super fun course!

Came here and played as a single. The group was very nice to play with. One local who’d played a bunch, so we had advice, and a couple other guys from outta state too.

A little narrow for those who don’t play every week. I only play once a month but had a great day (lucky day)! Played the same ball till the last hole...water is magnetic! Right in it off the tee box! Even in the heat it was a comfortable day of play.

Course is in amazing condition! Great job keeping everything green but not wet!

Good Value

Just know that my rating would be much higher except for the fact that the course is in direct line of the local airport. You can expect lots of "LOW" incoming flights. Very noisy!
