Courses in La Quinta
PGA West - Stadium Course
La Quinta, CA
The Stadium Course at PGA West in La Quinta, California, is a Pete Dye design that opened in 1986. It was built as a spectator course, with mounding and viewing areas shaped into the routing, and it was intentionally severe from the start. The bunkering is the defining feature, including deep, steep-faced traps and the greenside pit at the 16th. The par-3 17th, known as Alcatraz, plays to an island green surrounded by rock, and the 18th finishes with water down the entire left side. Tour professionals objected to the difficulty after early use, and the course was dropped from the desert PGA Tour rotation for years before returning. It now hosts rounds of the American Express and is open to resort play.

La Quinta Resort & Club (Mountain)

The course plays to a par of 72 and measures around 6,666 yards from the back tees.

The city bought the land, a former cattle ranch, in 2002 and opened the course a few years later. Twelve sets of tees make it playable for a wide range of golfers.
