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.

Not a destination location

Although it was a nice course it’s not a destination course. The price was a bit high for a TPC course maybe because it’s tied to the stadium course. I will try another location the next time I visit Arizona.

Course maintenance and layout were great. Ace was slow as no marshall to speed up rookie foursome playing tips. Patio bar was ok accept worker refused to come out from behind bar despite fact that we were only group there at the time (we had to go to bar for everything)

Beautiful scenery and fast greens

The scenery was spectacular. The greens were fast. We booked online for 1:42 and ended up doing the front 9 twice but we didn’t get to finish second 9 because of time of day. There was people that were set in front of us so our time got bumped later. Which made it so we weren’t get to do the whole course. As we aren’t living in Arizona it was a tad disappointing. For the cost that part was a let down. The staff was very nice trying to make the situation better. And did what they could. That was appreciated. We just wanted to golf here. So I can’t tell you what the back 9 is like. But I would golf here again. The planes going overhead were cool.

It was a good experience overall

The man at the check-in desk in the pro shop could have been a little more friendly and receptive.

EXCELLENT PLACE TO PLAY. BETTER THAN STADIUM

I have played once before. both times have been ideal. drink cart girl was awesome too. no cash credit card only but that's because of the pandemic. If you think it might be something you would like to play do it you will not be disappointed. Holes are cut sharply so you have to hit it in I had air under the ball more than once and it did not drop. Overall very fun layout.

Nice but not best in the valley

The course was in very good shape. The greens ran trio and the tees were in great shape. The round was less than perfect due to a very unfriendly playing partner. He told me his name on the 1st tee and never said another word for 18 holes, he just ignored me, teed off and headed to his cart, putted out and did the same. A real putz! The place was horrible, I saw the beverage cart a couple of times but never saw a marshall. The group in front of us was was behind. I might play again but the rea has some many great course, probably not for awhile.

Great golf

Had a great round. Course was in great condition, much better than my game. Everything was moving well and we had no one pushing us and a Marshall asked us to pick up the pace. We had 4 holes to play and an hour left on there 4hr 15 min round. Didn’t feel this was necessary, but otherwise a great time.

Ok

The staff is great

Their attention to detail and friendliness great

COVID awareness is great

They send an email the day before and outline what is open , course conditions, Covid procedures , range , cart path only

Really great customer service

Greens rolled tru and at a good pace

Fairways and tee boxes in very good condition

I wasn’t in any bunkers so I can’t rate

Course layout ok

I have played several other TPC courses and I would say this was a little disappointing as far as the layout goes

This is not anything like the stadium course
