Shadow Ridge Golf Resort

Architects:  Lee Schmitt and
Brian Curley
Description:
The newest addition to the world-class golf selection in the Palm Springs area comes from Nick Faldo. The winner of six major championships on the PGA Tour, Nick Faldo has joined forces with noted course architects Lee Schmitt and Brian Curley to produce his first course design in the United States. Native golden grasses frame large fairways with unique bunkering through the green. Many of the greens contain closely-mowed collection areas providing some of the most challenging pin placements in the desert. Strategic design and superior course conditions make this a must play.

Firecliff Course at Desert Willow

Architects:  Michael Hurdzan &
John Cook
Description:
Local PGA Tour Professional John Cook has co-designed two incredible courses in the heart of the desert. Award winning for design, each teebox and hole is surrounded by abundant desert wildlife and vegetation. This arid landscape will catch your eye as well as errant shots. The Firecliff Course is Desert Willow’s signature, requiring accuracy on every shot. Fairways provide landing areas as targets and set the stage for approach shots into the well-bunkered greens. The Mountain View Course utilizes the same design principles, but allows for a greater margin of error. Landing areas are generous and are set well below the surface of the desert creating a secluded feeling and providing containment mounds, effectively stopping many sliced shots.

North Course at Landmark Golf Club

Architect:  N/A
Description:
Home of The Skin’s Game 1999-2005. Two challenging, picturesque courses, North Course and South Course, are set amid hundreds of acres of stark, untouched terrain. Manicured fairways wind through white sands and rocks accented with only a few hearty grasses and colorful native desert flowers. Bridges crafted from railroad cars guide players across the All-American Canal. Elevated tee boxes offer breathtaking views from the San Gorgonio to the Chocolate Mountains. If you look closely, you can see the famous San Andreas Fault bordering the Indo Foothills.

Greg Norman Course at PGA WEST 

Architect:  Greg Norman
Description:
The Greg Norman Course at PGA WEST is one of only three “desert” style courses in the area. With only 62 acres of turf, players will favor accuracy for length on most shots.
