Sterling Grove Golf Club

Surprise, AZ · 8.2 mi away

Sterling Grove Golf Club is an 18-hole, par-72 semi-private golf course in Surprise, Arizona. It was designed by Nicklaus Design, with Chris Cochran leading the project, and opened for preview play in February 2021 as the first new golf course to open to public play in Arizona since 2016. Set against the White Tank Mountains, the course in Surprise departs from typical desert-style design, routing through grove-lined fairways with wide landing areas and undulating greens. More than 1,700 trees were planted to line the fairways and define the routing as the course has matured.

Wigwam Golf Club (Gold)

Litchfield Park, AZ · 8.7 mi away

The Wigwam Golf Club's Gold Course is one of three courses at the historic Wigwam resort property in Litchfield Park, Arizona, just west of Phoenix. Designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr. and opened in 1965, the course was conceived as a western counterpart to Firestone Country Club's South Course, sharing a similar scale and style. The Gold Course plays to a par of 72 and stretches to about 7,345 yards from the back tees, with narrow, tree-lined fairways, strategically placed bunkers, and small, well-guarded greens that have hosted USGA qualifiers and NCAA regional events. The course operates as part of the Wigwam resort, available to resort guests and members, with recent contemporary updates made by Tom Lehman Design.
