Preserve At Saddlebrooke, The

The high Sonoran Desert provides a dramatic backdrop for this Tom Weiskopf design, where elevation changes of 200 feet and forced carries over natural washes demand both precision and course management. Strategic bunkering and undulating greens reward thoughtful play over pure distance, while the par-3 17th across a desert ravine stands as one of Arizona's most photogenic and demanding one-shotters. Desert golf purists will appreciate how the routing respects the natural arroyos and saguaro-studded landscape without feeling gimmicky.
