Designed by the team of Tom Weiskopf and Jay Morrish, the Stadium Course is the home of the annual PGA Tour Waste Management Phoenix Open (formerly the FBR Open). The course boasts room for a 400,000-plus person gallery, ideal for the spectators who enjoy the excitement of The Waste Management Phoenix Open every winter. Lush fairways surrounded by desert vegetation and breathtaking mountain views enhance the golf experience on this 18 hole, par-71 course. One of the most dramatic holes on the TPC Stadium Course is the 15th hole. It is a reachable par-5 featuring water surrounding an island green.

TPC Scottsdale - Champions Course

Built on the former site of TPC Scottsdale’s Desert Course, the completely new Champions Course was designed by Heckenkemper to fit seamlessly into the natural desert terrain.

Crafted to offer a variety of playing strategies, the course includes five par-3s and a diverse array of par-4s, ranging from the 480-yard fifth hole with a split fairway to the 15th - a short 310 yards if golfers choose to go directly for the green. The course finishes par-3, par-5 and par-4, creating a dramatic ending to this outstanding new layout. The Champions Course also includes a beautiful new modern clubhouse featuring expanded banquet and catering capabilities, and a large outdoor patio that will serve as the ideal locale for tournament receptions, business gatherings and other special events.
