Sedona
Sedona Golf Resort: The world-renowned and towering red rock formations of Sedona form the principal backdrop to this wonderfully challenging and dramatically scenic golf course.
On your out-and-back journey around the course, the front-nine gently winds its way up the early slopes of House Mountain, with the equally testing back-nine bringing you back down again to the clubhouse. Along the way you will enjoy fabulous views onto some of the area's most famous and best loved rock formations, not least Bell Rock, Courthouse Butte and the fabulous Cathedral Rock.
Cascading back down the hillside from the signature par-3 10th, you may feel a few of the remaining par-4s and 5s could be included in the world's "toughest" golf holes list, especially with tight fairways and semi-blind drives greeting you from several tees.
Housing flanks some of the holes here, although never too closely. The often tightish fairways are flanked by cactus and single-berry juniper trees, as well as occasional rocky outcrops and plenty of red-sand bunkering.
Pick of the holes: Sedona's signature 10th hole awaits at the top of your climb, furthest away from the clubhouse. This good length par-3 is spectacularly framed with the immensely beautiful and distinctive Cathedral Rock rising up in the distance behind the green. Little wonder the hole is included in many listings of the World's Greatest Golf Holes.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.

Located in Arizona's high desert under the towering southwestern rim of the vast Colorado Plateau, the area around Sedona is one of Arizona's premier tourism, recreation, resort, retirement and art centres.
Characterised by massive red-rock formations, as well as the contrasting and spectacular Oak Creek Canyon, the area surrounding Sedona is considered at least as beautiful as many national parks. The cool high desert nights in summer, also attracts many local visitors.
The story concerning the naming of Sedona is well known. Theodore Carl Schnebly and his wife, Sedona, moved to this area from Gorin, Missouri. The few ranching families living here convinced T.C. to establish a post office in his large home. Legend has it that he asked the government to name the post office, Schnebly Station or Red Rock Crossing. He was told the names were too long, and following a suggestion by his brother, he submitted his wife's name, Sedona. And so it was.

The Masters: The 88th Masters Tournament at Augusta National sees LIV golfer Jon Rahm defend his title against the world’s best. Pressing hard will be world No.1 and 2022 champion Scottie Scheffler and world No.2 Rory McIlroy (April 11-14).
Chevron Championship: the women’s major championship season gets underway for the second year at its new Carlton Woods home outside Houston, Texas. World No.2 Lilia Vu defends (April 18-21).
Nelly Korda: records a perfect start to 2024 with four wins out of her last four appearances on the LPGA Tour, a feat last achieved by Lorena Ochoa in 2008. Korda's win at the T-Mobile Match Play brought up her 12th LPGA Tour victory.
Scottie Scheffler: narrowly missed out on matching Nelly Korda’s three-in-three, when he placed second at the Houston Open. This followed back-to-back wins at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and The Players. Like Korda, he remains comfortably ahead in the official world golf rankings.
Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.
