Jack Nicklaus’ Newest: the Chase at PGA Golf Club Coyote Springs
It’s been awhile since the Las Vegas golf area has seen a new golf course open, but the wait is over as The Chase, a Jack Nicklaus design, officially opens for public play as part of PGA Golf Club Coyote Springs. The facility and this course are a partnership between the PGA of America, Coyote Springs developers and Nicklaus, and is located a short, 50-mile drive from Las Vegas. The Chase is the original jewel of what someday is planned to be a huge masterplanned community with several more Las Vegas Nicklaus golf courses, dubbed the Bear Trail. The future calls for a signature design with Pete Dye, the first time the two icons will have worked together. "At The Bear Trail, my design staff and I are excited to have the opportunity to create a truly exceptional legacy," says Nicklaus. coyotesprings.com
Former UNLV Rebels Ryan Moore, Adam Scott Go Extras on Tour
Ryan Moore was what Adam Scott could’ve been had he elected to finish out his entire collegiate golf career at UNLV instead of only playing for 1.5 seasons under Hall-of-Fame coach Dwaine Knight. But Scott is what Moore aspires to be now that both are PGA Tour players. Scott–so far–has accomplished much more as a professional. Over the weekend, Scott held on in a playoff at the EDS Byron Nelson Championship in Texas to prevent Moore from earning his first professional victory. For Scott, it was win number six on the PGA Tour, but in college Moore won every tournament that mattered in 2004 and left UNLV the following year as the best Rebel ever. Read on for complete post-round quotes from both Scott and Moore. GolfLasVegasNow.com
Rhodes Ranch, Tuscany Part of Las Vegas Golf Authority
Two very enjoyable golf courses in Las Vegas are Rhodes Ranch Golf Club and Tuscany Golf Club. These Las Vegas golf courses–both Ted Robinson designs–boast his typical, playable style: wide fairways and large greens, plus very few forced carries and beautiful water features. But be careful, the par 3’s are a challenge, and you’ll need to pay attention to ball position. Both Rhodes Ranch and Tuscany are part of several other Las Vegas golf courses that can be found at lasvegasgolfauthority.com, a website operated by the PGA of America pros who manage the courses. You can book tee times online, view photos, and you will be dealing directly with each golf course, therefore securing the best rates and information. As it says on the site: "Don’t gamble with your golf in Las Vegas."
