Basic Information
Challenge, beauty and drama permeate every Jack Nicklaus-designed course, and this masterful design is no exception. Around every corner you will find a new challenge, including the rare feature of two island greens. At 7,204 yards long, The Nicklaus Tournament Course has a stroke rating of 75.3 and a slope rating of 143. A true ball strikers’ golf course, The Nicklaus Tournament along with The Stadium Course is the bi-annual host of the PGA TOUR’s final round of Q-School, which is attended by some of the best players in the world. Nicknamed by Members as the Nick Tourney, it is both very forgiving off the tee and extremely demanding around the greens. Without a doubt, a “must play” for not only a great test of golf, but for its magnificent desert setting.
Carved by time between some of the oldest and newest mountain ranges in North America lies PGA WEST, a geographically blessed golf destination. Symbolized by Coral Mountain which rises from the shell-laden desert floor bearing the distinct markings of an ancient ocean, the designs of nature and golf visionaries now rule this once submerged paradise. And if not for an error by early map interpreters, California’s Coachella Valley Desert would be known today as Conchella (Conch-Shell-A) Valley.

Workshop day-2, Company competition 2nd round at PGA west – Nicklaus Tournament course.
Memorable play here, this course is also one all golfer desires to play. Fairway lawn and green condition are marvelous, there are many sand bunkers at each holes and those are bigger size than usual. Today we played from white tee according to competition guiding, so I feel course difficulty is intermediate, but scare if we play here from blue tee, totally different. And Green looks be adjusted for public play today, not so fast, it was relax putting compared with yesterday.
46 44 90 Almost, I wanted to make under 90 today. I regretted my one miss shot at hole 7, and just one miss shot had made my swing tempo be changed.
