The Legacy
Built
in 1989 by Arthur Hills and located south of Las Vegas in Henderson,
The Legacy Golf Club is distinctly "Vegas". The four sets of tees
on the 10th each make up a different suit, reminding golfers blackjack
isn't too far away. Following No. 10, the "Devil's Triangle" is the toughest
stretch of holes on the course, featuring one long par 4 followed by two
deceivingly tempting short par 4s. The course is a links style, featuring
gentle rolling fairways and mounding and large, heavily undulated greens.
The club annually plays host to U.S. Open Qualifying.
The Legacy Golf Club, built in 1989 by Arthur Hills literally suits Vegas
on the 10th hole. Each tee box on the par 3 is crafted in the design of
a heart, spade, club and diamond, in case golfers forgot just what city
they are in.
This nationally acclaimed facility's aesthetics are complete with rugged
lava gathering,
multiple tier fairways and large undulating greens. There is also contrasting
desert flora and native grasses. It's a signature Hills' links-style course
featuring rolling terrain, well bunkered and lighting fast elevated greens
to go along with slopping fairways that wind through desert areas.
The back nine continues with the Devils Triangle, three holes known to
make good rounds disappear. The 11th, a long par 4 is followed up by two
tempting short four-shooters that are drivable, but require accuracy over
length. The 12th and 13th also feature some of the most undulating greens
on the course. Multi-level fairways and mounds make The Legacy a signature
Hills design. The Legacy has a full-service practice area, complete with
grass and matted tees, bunker area, putting and chipping green.
The club annually plays host to United States Open Qualifying and American
Junior Golf Association tournaments, providing this tested players with
the ultimate test, an opportunity to play in The Open or shine on the
junior level.
The Legacy was voted "Best Course in Nevada" by the Las Vegas
Review Journal, the Best Public Course in Las Vegas by the Las Vegas Business
Press and considered "Top 10 in Nevada" by Golf Digest.
