Chip's Hot Take

"The best bang-for-your-buck in Scottsdale, and it's not even close. Hole 9's island fairway is a top-18 water hole in America for a reason — you're either hitting the short grass or going swimming. Water comes into play on ten holes, but the course is forgiving enough off the tee that you won't burn through a sleeve every three holes. Greens are sneaky fast and elevated, so club up. At $75 when the desert courses are charging triple, this is the move."
