Tiger Woods fired a
1-under-par 70 at Las Vegas National golf course in 1996 en route to his
historic PGA Tour victory. The traditional course was a host for the PGA Tour's
Las Vegas Invitational for several years, in addition to hosting other PGA Tour
events and LPGA events throughout the years. LPGA Hall-of-Famer Mickey Wright
claimed two of her 13 major championships on the course by winning the LPGA
Championship twice. Fairways meander through the shadows of mature palm trees
and greens flanked by sand traps and ponds. Five intriguing par 3s (the toughest
set in the valley) offer a stern test, while mid-length par 5s offer good
chances for par or birdie.
Las Vegas National is considered a
traditional style golf course with mature trees lining the fairways, water
hazards and smallish greens . One of the older courses in Las Vegas it's located
just 10 minutes from the Las Vegas Strip.
