Course Information

|
The newest course at PGA WEST and the only Greg Norman-designed golf course in the Coachella Valley is aptly described as being very "challenging but fair." Sporting 68 acres of lush manicured turf, 102 white crushed marble bunkers and shark blue water coming into play on 9 holes, this 7,200-yard course offers a truly "Outback" experience. Resting 40-feet below sea level and surrounded by an immense crescent of terra cotta mountains, the course teems with purple, white and yellow wildflowers, along with short native grasses producing shades of green running almost to silver. The grass covers 60 acres of tight fairways that taper toward the greens with nine ponds blanketing 18 acres. The demands of the target-style course are a challenge for players of all levels.
Challenge, beauty, and drama permeate every Jack Nicklaus-designed course, and this masterful design is no exception. Around every corner you will find a challenge, including the rare feature of two island greens. At 7,204 yards long, the Nicklaus Tournament Course is a true ball stirkers' golf course. The course hosts the bi-annual PGA Tour's final round of Q-School, which is attended by some of the best players in the world. Nicknamed by Members as the "Nick Tourney" it is both very forgiving off the tee and extremely demanding around the greens. Without a doubt, a "must play" for not only a great test of golf, but for its magnificent desert setting.
