November 2017

Bill Coore – half of the Coore & Crenshaw design team responsible for We-Ko-Pa’s Saguaro course – was recently inducted into the Arizona Golf Hall of Fame. The 2017 Arizona Golf Hall of Fame Committee also inducted four other members including superintendent Shawn Emerson, LPGA professionals Betsy King and Kathy Cornelius and PGA section professional Cliff Whittle.

One of the most appealing traits of We-Ko-Pa Golf Club’s Saguaro course is the diversity of challenges found throughout the 18-hole journey. From wide and long to short and strategic, the Coore-Crenshaw-designed layout throws just about every device at golfers to keep things interesting. The 13th hole is a great example of the swing-away-type par 4 sprinkled throughout.
