For those of you who have not yet experienced The Gallery, the North Course was designed by former United States Amateur Champion and two time winner on the PGA Tour, John Fought along with 1996 British Open Champion, 1996 PGA Tour Player of the Year and 2006 Ryder Cup Captain, Tom Lehman.  While measuring 7,435 yards from the Championship Tees, it is characterized by wide fairways, large greens, and deep, plentiful bunkers.  Every hole will challenge shot making skills and strategic course management for all participants. 

 

The South Course opened Thanksgiving weekend 2003 to rave reviews from our members and guests alike.  It was designed solely by John Fought and is similar to the North Course in that it boasts wide fairway corridors and large greens with expansive views.  While it has similarities to the North, it is distinctly different around the green complexes.  While it measures 7,468 yards in length, it will open up many alternatives for you to show off your short game.  We know you will welcome the challenge.

 

The Gallery, established in 1998, has hosted the following events:  2016 Men’s Western NCAA Regional, 2014 Men’s PAC-12 Championship, 2013 Trans Mississippi Senior Championship, 2012 Southwest Section PGA Championship, 2012 Arizona Amateur Championship, 2009 Pacific Coast Amateur Championship, 2007 & 2008 World Golf Championships Accenture Match Play Championship, featuring the top 64 professional players in the world, 2004 Men’s PAC-10 Championships, 2002 Southwest Section PGA Championship, co-hosted the PGA Tour’s 2001 Touchstone Energy Tucson Open, and in 2000 the Arizona Amateur Championship.
