PGA WEST Greg Norman Course

Played the course on a hot June afternoon as a single. Starter named Alan gave me the low down on all the changes to the course since last time I played Norman course (very helpful). Followed a single who went out 10 minutes before me. I ran into a slowdown on the 5th hole where there was four foursomes of friends playing. Alan anticipated this slowdown and waiting on the 5th hole and escorted the single ahead of me and then me to the 9th hole where there was no one in front of us. Check on my status numerous times and supplied ice cold water bottles thorough the round. Was waiting for me at the 18th green when i arrived, and escorted me back the 5th hole. Was able to play 5 - 9 in no time at all. My entire round took about 3hrs and Alan saved me at least 1.5 hours of waiting on the course. Easily, one of the best players assistants I have ever had on any course. PGA West should give him a raise!!!

Course was in great shape and extremely changeling and enjoyable!

An "un-named" Golf Magazine that preaches how to play fast golf was hosting a tournament which played at a 5:17 pace. Otherwise an excellent place to play

The Norman course is always tough. They rebuilt greens, and it's made the course more scoreable. Prior, the difficulty of the layout, along with nearly impossible greens, was not fun. The course was in good condition. When the greens mature, it may be a better track. Time will tell. Staff was fine.

Worst greens never hold the ball , Finish 3 Minutes early still Marshals came to tell us keep up with group ahead of us. we have to mentioned group ahead of us are 2 sum ! Do you want us to run and finish or 2 of our guys won’t play to keep up to stay behind the group ahead of us, unfortunately we still waiting on few holes for tee off behind that group.

Course is in terrific shape, staff outstanding. Many tough holes and plenty of sand. Just wasn't expecting 100 degrees in April!

The Norman course at PGA West, personally my favorite of the public courses was in wonderful condition, but the greens were incredibly firm. Tee boxes and fairways were lush and green. The greens however were very fast and very hard. Like cart path hard practically. I know they are new and still getting their legs, but time and time again well struck approaches would not hold the greens. I’m sure in due time they will get them dialed in though.

Pace of play was fantastic. Playing Saturday afternoon of the Coachella Music Fest most likely kept the others away. Lucky us, because we had the whole place to ourselves and had a fabulous time. Highly recommend.

I would play this one again. Water got me a couple of times. Check your on board GPS before you play each hole.

Enjoyed the course. More playable after recent renovations. Directions from map it took us to private course clubhouse in PGA West. Frustrating waste of 15-20 minutes.
