Wildfire GC at Desert Ridge - Palmer: #16

Marriott’s Wildfire Golf Club opened in 1986 with its first course designed by Arnold Palmer, which was later complimented by the Faldo course in 2002. The location is one of its finest assets, just 16 miles from downtown Phoenix and 10 miles from downtown Scottsdale.

At over 7,000 yards from the back tees with a slope rating of 135, the Palmer course can provide a stern test even for the pros, although the great variety of tee boxes (usually six per hole) allows any category of player to have an enjoyable round. The expansive fairways allow the player to remain in play even on an errant shot. The flashed bunkering on Palmer is superb, and the putting greens carry plenty of undulation, like many signature Palmer designs.
