Walk in the footsteps of golf legends on the Stadium Course at PGA WEST, ranked among some of the best courses in the world. Home of the Desert Classic Golf Tournament, this par-72 course designed by Pete Dye provides the ultimate golf experience.

Thanks to Ernie Vossler and Joe Walser, I had the opportunity to design and build The Stadium Course. Love and hate can be found here.

Par 4

1st HOLE

par 4

Great starting hole. Requires two good shots. Avoid the bunker on the right with your tee shot. There’s more room on the left than appears. Green slopes left to right for your approach.

Short but demanding. Challenging the bunkers on the left will leave you a short iron, which helps with this tricky, undulating green.

Keep your tee shot down the right side. Second shot plays half-club longer back up into the mountain. A par here is better than most.

Avoid the bunkers left of the tee. The farther right you go on your second shot will provide a flatter lie for this tough approach shot to a long, undulating, well-guarded green.

“San Andreas Fault” – Avoid the bunker on the left of the tee. Once again avoid the bunker on the left on your second shot. Really avoid the bunker on the left on your approach shot, because it’s really, really deep.
