Greg Norman's PGA West course takes a lighter environmental touch than its neighbors, weaving native desert washes and natural landforms into a routing that feels grown from the valley rather than bulldozed into it. Norman favored width and angles over forced carries, so there's room to run the ball while the smart line into each green does the real defending. It measures 7,156 yards at par 72 and is fully open to resort guests.

The desert scrub, arroyos and mountain horizon give it a quieter, more naturalistic look than the Stadium's engineered drama, but the challenge is real—the par-5 8th stretches past 600 yards and several greens sit behind sand and native edges. It's the choice for players who want a strategic, scenic PGA West round with a distinctly different character from the Dye and Nicklaus courses.
