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

The TPC Champions course and the staff were excellent. The pace of play, however, could have been a lot better. Overall it was still an excellent experience and I’ll definitely play TPC Champions again.

The greens were in great shape along with the fairways. Watching the private jets fly over was cool.

Bucket list

Enjoyed the experience with a HighSchool
Classmate from Iowa. First time for both of us. Took advantage of the twilight
pricing, had to play the last hole in the dark.

We had a very nice time until lightning struck when we were on hole 10. I asked for a rain check for the back 9 and was told they don’t do that, so that was a little disappointing and definitely affected the value score.

Great Course

I really enjoy playing this course. Pace of play was unbearable. We spoke with the marshal and the young man did a great job moving them along. You will often encounter groups that are not proficient golfers and lack the understanding of ready golf.

Utter Debacle

Don’t waster your money on this vastly overpriced and overrated course. So many other options at this price point in the area. Told by Starter the pace of play was 4:15 and there were rangers monitoring play on the course. Called the pro shop twice asking for assistance, nobody ever showed up. Front nine took 2:50. No sand in the traps. Finished in complete darkness. Will never spend another dollar here again, Never been so disappointed in a high end golf course in my life. Complete money grab.
