Indian Wells Golf Resort
This 36-hole Palm Springs golf resort features a magnificent 53,000
square-foot clubhouse and two courses ranked in the Top 20 “Best
Courses You Can Play” in California by GolfWeek Magazine. Golf Chan-
nel’s popular Big Break series was contested at Indian Wells Golf Resort
for its 15th season and showcased the resort’s two championship golf
courses—Celebrity Course and Players Course. The Celebrity Course is
a two-time host to the PGA TOUR’s Skins Game. Located within walk-
ing distance from four luxury hotels in Indian Wells, the golf resort is
ideal for tournaments, corporate events, group outings, dream wedding
ceremonies and receptions.
Celebrity Course
Clive Clark’s much anticipated Celebrity Course opened November
2006 to rave reviews. In addition to spectacular mountain views, the par
72 Celebrity Course features undulating fairways and flowing water in
the form of streams, brooks, and split-level lakes connected by striking
waterfalls, with vibrant floral detail.
Players Course
The John Fought-designed Players Course opened in November 2007.
The Players Course features a classic American design complete with
sculpted bunkers in a style reminiscent of Riviera and Winged Foot.
Uniquely, Fought was able to seamlessly integrate many stately trees
found on the original properties into his new designs to impart the
unique feel of an older venerable facility while at the same time deliver-
ing a modern approach to golf course design.
