TPC Scottsdale Stadium Course

Arizona is one of the premier golf destinations in the country, and the Scottsdale-Phoenix corridor is ground zero. The Sonoran Desert provides a setting that no other golf region can match - saguaro cacti, red rock formations, McDowell Mountain backdrops, and over 300 days of sunshine a year. But the quality goes beyond scenery. Arizona’s best public courses feature designs by Coore & Crenshaw, Tom Fazio, Tom Weiskopf, and Jay Morrish, built across terrain that produces dramatic elevation changes, canyon carries, and strategic desert-wash hazards. The GolfPass 2026 Golfers’ Choice rankings analyzed nearly 20,000 reviews of Arizona courses to compile their annual list. Golf Digest and Golfweek also rank multiple Arizona courses nationally. Scottsdale and the East Valley Scottsdale is the capital of desert golf, with more top-ranked public courses per square mile than almost anywhere in the country. TPC Scottsdale Stadium Course plays 7,261 yards at par 71 and is home to the WM Phoenix Open - the best-attended event on the PGA Tour. The course is defined by its par-3 16th hole, which transforms into a 20,000-seat stadium during tournament week. The rest of the year, it plays as a well-conditioned resort course with risk-reward holes throughout. Golfweek...
