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.

Course is wide open

Loved the course. Wide open. Pace of play Bordered between ok and slow. There were 2 groups in front of us that would combine on some holes. This created some slowness

1st Class

the course layout was moderate - I think it was designed for the casual golfer. The quality of the course equals the price I paid but I wouldn't think it would rank in my top fie of Phoenix golf courses. It is one of the most manicured courses from the greens to the fairway-rough. Degree of difficulty would rank in the 6 out of 10.

Nice, picturesque course to play

The course had a lot of work going on. The greens were not in good shape maybe due to the punched greens. Had to wait on most of our shots to the green and teeing off. The players in front of us thought they could hit their second shots 300 yards to a 5 par green. We love this course and the price was better than other courses we had played. Many areas on the fairway were burnt out and mowed to the dirt. We hope Troon North will be in great shape tomorrow.

Maybe wait a few weeks

The course layout has always been the better of the two courses. They just opened back from their maintenance work. So I'm just not used to bad greens and overgrown tee boxes and fairways at a TPC course. Heavy construction equipment also present on the course during play so bearing that in mind, i would just wait a few weeks to play there. I'm sure it'll be back to normal TPC standards in no time.

Fairways in great condition

The course was beautiful. Greens were a little sandy but still rolled pretty good. Fairways were great.

Extremely poor greens

Even with the understanding that it’s summer, this course shouldn’t have been opened back up just yet. The amount of sand on the greens was unbelievable. This was, by far, the worst greens I have ever played. Staff super friendly and helpful. Strange, didn’t see anywhere to clean clubs and none of the attendants were offering. This is an expected service at $75+, in my opinion. Won’t ever come back here.

Very poor comditions for a “TPC”

For what we paid, no matter if its July in Arizona, the course was in awful shape. The tee boxes were almost as thick as the rough. The greens had more sand on them then any beach along the California coast. Even munis like Aguila are in far better shape right now and at a better rate as well. Only good thing was the fairways were decent, though saturated, and the pace of play was exceptional. If I ever play at this course again, I will definitely call ahead to avoid another mess.

Another great round at TPC!

Course was a little rough in spots but that’s to be expected when it’s 115+ each day. Overall it was pretty good. The staff was excellent. We even had someone bring us cooling/scented towels. Very nice addition.

Challenging course on a hot day

The course was in very good condition with only minor issues. It was 115 deg but the course held up well for the temps. Greens were true and fast. Rough was as payable as the fairways. Staff was incredible. I will always play when I visit.

Team event

Took my work team out for some relaxing golf at a great course. Everyone wants to play the stadium course but the Champions course is just as nice.
