TPC at Summerlin, Professional golf course in Summerlin, Las Vegas, US.
TPC at Summerlin is a championship golf course on the west side of Las Vegas, built into a desert setting with natural canyons, dry washes, and water features woven into the layout. The course was designed by Bobby Weed with professional golfer Fuzzy Zoeller serving as a playing consultant.
The course opened in the early 1990s and was the first golf facility in Nevada to earn Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary certification, which recognized its efforts to protect wildlife habitat in the desert. That status helped set a standard for how golf courses in arid regions could be managed responsibly.
The course hosts the Shriners Children's Open each year, a PGA Tour event that brings professional players and spectators to Las Vegas in the fall. During tournament week, the grounds open to the public and fans can follow players closely along the fairways.
Playing between October and April tends to be more comfortable, as desert heat in summer can be intense at midday. Proper golf attire is required on the course, so checking the dress code before arriving is a good idea.
The course appears as a playable base-game course in the PC versions of Tiger Woods 99 PGA Tour Golf, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2000 and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2001, and it also featured in PGA Tour Golf III and PGA Tour Golf 486. Its average elevation is about 2,700 feet (820 m) above sea level.
