Just a short drive from Palm Springs is PGA West, home of the 2022 Golfweek Senior Amateur Championship. The Dunes and Mountain courses feature a common clubhouse and share a world class practice facility. Round one and two will have you playing the Dunes course with the final round contested on the visually stunning Pete Dye Mountain course. Both the Dunes and Mountain feature the classic Dye design which is evident the moment you approach the first tee. Although designed to intimidate and fool the eye, the Dunes and Mountain both offer generous landing areas off the tee. The highlight of the week will be the impeccably maintained Mountain Course with its stunning visuals as you play along and through the base of the picturesque Santa Rosa Mountains. PGA West, the west coast home of golf, is the perfect place to be in April for the Golfweek Senior Amateur Championship.
