Saguaro cacti and desert washes frame generous landing areas, but the real test comes from approach shots to elevated greens that demand precise club selection in the thin desert air. Jack Nicklaus's routing maximizes the stunning mountain vistas while punishing wayward shots with unforgiving desert lies that separate weekend hackers from true players.
