Legacy, The (Las Vegas)
The Legacy Golf Club: Designed by acclaimed golf course architect Arthur Hills, The Legacy is an 18-hole desert-style course, characterised by multi-tiered fairways and large undulating greens. Stretching 7,233 yards from the back tees, this memorable layout is a strong challenge for the scratch player, yet also accommodates higher handicappers, with well-spaced tee boxes and generous fairway landing areas.
Most of the holes are accompanied by residential housing on either side; a band of desert rough usually skirting the good-width fairways and keeping the properties out of harm's way. The anti-clockwise front-nine loop is played to the east of the clubhouse, the signature par-3 10th starts the clockwise back-nine loop, which is played on the other side of Green Valley Parkway.
The Legacy is perhaps unique in having a signature hole defined by its tee-boxes, each one the shape of a playing card suit. The ladies tee is a Heart; farthest back is the Spade; a Club of course for the men's club tee and, for those wanting the best chance to ace the hole, the men's front tee is a Diamond.
Also renowned on this layout is a devilishly difficult trio of consecutive par-4's. Known as the "Devil's Triangle", it comprises the good-length 11th; the sharply dog-legging 12th, and the "unlucky for some" short 13th, dangerously flanked by a rock-filled desert wash area on its left side.

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).

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.
