BOOK
A TEE
TIME
A
member who goes by roarksown1
on Greenskeeper.org, a website that
posts golf course reviews and mainte-
nance alerts, recently teed it up on the
Players Course at Indian Wells Golf
Resort and wrote the following review:
Played with the Greenskeeper Cup
group at Indian Wells and was ex-
cited to take on the Players Course
this time after being wowed by the
Celebrity Course the time before. Two
very different 18s for sure, but both of
great quality and fun.
Conditions just before what I imag-
ine will be the winter re-seeding were
pretty exceptional across the board.
Fairways were in terrific condition in
almost every area, while the rough
was also quite lush and green but not
too difficult to hit shots from. … The
tee boxes were more or less perfect –
and what a variety of tee boxes to
choose from. We played the orange
tees and there were still two other
sets behind those – now that would
be an immense challenge.
The greens were really great. The
green complexes are very interesting
and challenging for sure. Some large,
some small, but all very complex and
tricky in their own way. They were
probably rolling around a 10 or more
I would imagine, but held shots well
and rolled true.
Cart service came around many
times on a very hot day, and there
was ample ice and water at refresh-
ment stations every few holes. Just a
top-notch experience from soup to
nuts. As for the layout itself, really
fun and challenging par 4s with not
too many elevation shifts, but plenty
of water features and carries. The par
5s were fairly tame, but still gave me
a hard time.
Outstanding service from the In-
dian Wells crew and everyone there
from the bag drop until the very end.
They do amazing work here at this
resort and it will always be a pleasure
to play here. I can't wait to come back
and play a better round!
