Ritz-Carlton Golf Club at Dove Mountain in Marana, Arizona

Jack Nicklaus designed the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club at Dove Mountain specifically for the WGC Accenture Match Play Championship, which was played here for the first time in 2008.

The world's top players faced each other on the Saguaro and Tortolita nines. The Wild Burro Course's nine, however, doesn't take a back seat to the rest of the course.

Throughout all three nines, the fairways are wide and the greens get your attention. With the Tortolita Mountains providing the backdrop and plenty of arroyos, saguaro cacti and wildlife rounding out the scenery, there's plenty to view at this immaculate 27-hole facility. The clubhouse and practice facilities aren't bad either.
