The John Fought-designed Players Course opened in November 2007.  The Players Course features a classic American design complete with sculpted bunkers in a style reminiscent of Riviera, Winged Foot and the brilliant golf courses created by Dr. Alistair Mackenzie near Melbourne, Australia. Uniquely, Fought was able to seamlessly integrate many stately trees found on the original properties into his new designs to impart the unique feel of an older venerable facility while at the same time delivering a modern approach to golf course design.  Most of the holes are oriented to take full advantage of jaw-dropping views of the San Jacinto, Santa Rosa and San Bernardino mountain ranges and majestic Eisenhower Mountain stands sentinel to the south.

The La Quinta Summer Golf Tour is back. This 13-week golf program allows participants to play at some of the finest courses in the Coachella Valley. Tour participants may pick and choose which courses they would like to play. The Tour includes a men and women's division; plaques will be awarded to the top finalists in both divisions at the Golf Tour Banquet on August 26. You do not have to be a La Quinta resident to join the Tour. Registration for the Summer Golf Tour is at capacity.
