Arizona holds one of the densest concentrations of championship desert golf in the country, and these ten are its standard-bearers. The heart of it sits in north Scottsdale — Troon North's two Weiskopf-Morrish layouts threading through granite boulders, Tom Fazio's Raptor at Grayhawk, and the Coore & Crenshaw and Scott Miller courses at We-Ko-Pa on Fort McDowell Yavapai land. Beyond the Scottsdale corridor lie Jay Morrish's Boulders South in Carefree, the Rees Jones desert test at Quintero near Peoria, Jack Nicklaus's Dove Mountain in the Tortolitas, the Australian sand-belt lines of Ak-Chin Southern Dunes south of Phoenix, and the most famous stadium hole in golf — the par-3 16th at TPC Scottsdale, home of the WM Phoenix Open. Ten ways into the Sonoran Desert, all open to the public.
