Scottsdale is widely considered one of the premier golf destinations in America, with over 200 courses in the greater Phoenix-Scottsdale area and world-class facilities like TPC Scottsdale, host of the PGA Tour's Waste Management Phoenix Open. The city attracts golfers and instructors at the highest levels of the game, making it exceptional for finding elite instruction. Scottsdale pros are experts in desert golf—managing firm, fast conditions, navigating desert hazards, adjusting for altitude, and playing in dry heat that demands smart hydration and early morning tee times in summer. Whether you're visiting for a golf getaway or a local looking to improve, Scottsdale's concentration of top-tier teaching talent and facilities is unmatched in the Southwest.
