ASU Karsten Golf Course: PERMANENTLY CLOSED IN MAY 2019 to make way for the Arizona State University's expanding athletic facilities district.
[Original Where2Golf description]: ASU Karsten Golf Course is a hilly and at times quirky Pete & Perry Dye design, located in the heart of Arizona State University's Tempe Campus. This desert-style and parkland course, bisected by a busy highway, may not be one of the most scenic in Phoenix, but has for many years represented an excellent value, low cost golf option.
Course permanently closed in 2019.
Non-metal spike facility. Golf carts compulsory.
ASU Karsten Golf Course opened in 1989, with significant funding provided by Karsten Solheim, founder of PING golf equipment. Over its last 20-plus years, more than 1 million rounds were played here, including 52,000 by the Arizona State University (ASU) men’s and ladies golf teams (the "Sun Devils").
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 five wins out of her last five starts on the LPGA Tour. Winning the Chevron Championship also brought the second major championship win of her career.
Scottie Scheffler: narrowly missed out on matching Nelly Korda's five wins in five starts, when he placed second at the Houston Open. Either side of that, he won The Arnold Palmer, The Players, and then The Masters and The Heritage.
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.
Jim Fazio's original layout was much changed to create a modern Ryder Cup course ... now one of the Eternal City's (and Italy's) most revered.
Here at Prince’s Golf Club you'll find 27 excellent holes of links golf. Just over the fence and sharing similar terrain is Royal St George’s; but Prince’s is far from overshadowed by its venerable neighbour. The three nine-hole loops at Prince's, laid out over gently undulating terrain, are sure to bring a smile of satisfaction to all lovers of links golf.
Stay&Play at Prince's: excellent onsite Lodge accommodation available
