The word on the course.

How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.

The longtime LPGA major host, a Desmond Muirhead design that plays old-school parkland-meets-desert, rewarding the straight shot and demanding precision into the greens with creative water and bunkering. Many rate it the standout of the three Mission Hills courses, though a minority find the back nine less inspired.
