General Tips to play PGA West TPC Stadium Course

PGA West TPC Stadium Course plays very long so Caddytips recommend sharpening your driver and long irons prior to playing. There is a lot of water on this course, which brings the risk/reward factor into play. Play smart to avoid the big numbers. Avoid sucker pins and play for the middle of the greens. If you can’t make forced carries, look for a characteristic lay-up area. The greens and fairways are recessed from the rough and surrounded by steep slopes, giving it a “Stadium” type feel. The PGA West TPC Stadium Course is known for their deep bunkers especially around the green. There are some bunkers that are over 15 feet below the green. Practice these deep bunker shots on their range where they have a similar trap.
