THE WIGWAM RESORT - BLUE COURSE
LITCHFIELD PARK, AZ
The Blue has been described as tricky and subtle. Playing to a length just over 6,000 yards, but a par of 70, the test can be a bit deceiving. Here is a creative course. One full of decisions and thought provoking strategy. The hallmark of Robert Trent Jones' design can be found in the array of deep and perilous bunkers, ponds and dog-leg fairways. The Blue Course is a course full of contradictions. Take for example the opening holes -- a par 5, par 3, par 5, par 3 and yet another par 5. It is a roller-coaster of golf holes, each one offering a different obstacle and challenge.
Perhaps most photographed is the Blue's 15th hole, a short 140-yard par 3 to an island green. More than one match will be won or lost at this "simple little hole." Among the finishing holes is the 17th, a par 3 to a green built as a mirror image of the famous 16th at Augusta where Mr. Jones' remodeling work has endured as one of the most famous holes in all of golf.
