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.

Excellent course!

Even though it was around 100 degrees, this course is worth playing. The staff, fairways, greens, and bunkers were in excellent condition and well maintained.

Great value.. a little damp though

The course is in great condition, only downfall is how soaked the fairways are in some spots.. almost casual water at times. I know they just want to keep it green at all cost but makes the course play harder. Greens were perfect, rollin true!

1st time, not my last!

This golf course is simply outstanding! From the pro shop welcome/check-in, to the cart guys sanitizing each cart .....the course was in perfect condition—— the greens were glorious—— and we flew around the course in 3 1/2 hours with a foursome, (can’t forget the cart girl and snack counter girl), super friendly and great service!!!

Loved this course from start to finish. Fair but challenging.

Can’t wait to play it again along with the Stadium course. Just moved here and thrilled with everything at TPC Scottsdale

Great day

We had a great day last Sunday. Played in like 3 hours. The weather was perfect! The course was in great shape. I played well, shot +4 on the front and +3 on the back for a 78. There are some really fun holes on Champs!

Played here the last couple of days and they are working to keep folks safe as possible. I would like to see them take the rakes out and off the course for obvious reasons. Love this course and would definitely recommend it to anybody. Course was in great condition.

Champions Course

A bit overrated. Glad I didn't pay full price. Fairways are narrow for the desert. Get off the grass and you are in trouble. Plan your tees by the par 3 yardages.
