The Valley\u2019s own Anna Nordqvist\u2014who happens to be a 2017 Founders Cup champion and a two-time major championship winner\u2014on her top five must-play Valley greens. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Silverleaf Golf Club<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is my home course in Scottsdale. It\u2019s a fun time and has a lot of character. You truly can\u2019t beat coming down the last couple holes during an Arizona sunset. Overall, I love the atmosphere and the facilities at this club. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scottsdale National Golf Club <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Mineshaft and The Other courses are both a fun challenge that test every shot in the bag, and The Bad Little Nine is a great nine-hole par-3 course that is incredibly tough and will test your short game to its limit. I love spending time out here because there is not one shot you can\u2019t practice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mirabel Golf Club<\/a><\/strong> (pictured)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found the greens very undulated and challenging, so it\u2019s a perfect test for your approach shots. Mirabel is in the northern part of Scottsdale where it gets a little cooler, so it\u2019s an ideal place to go when the warmer weather hits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wickenburg Ranch Golf & Social Club<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found this hidden gem while driving from Phoenix to Las Vegas. I was very impressed with the outstanding course design. This course has the most character as it has numerous ups-and-downs plus water to challenge your game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Superstition Mountain Golf<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I absolutely love the course at Superstition Mountain because it\u2019s such a peaceful place outside of Phoenix. It\u2019s always in top shape and the practice facilities are great out there. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Valley\u2019s own Anna Nordqvist\u2014who happens to be a 2017
