Exploring the history and facts of the Shadow Creek Golf Course
The course was built on 350-acres with an estimated budget of $60 million in 1989 by Steve Wynn, an American real estate developer, in North Las Vegas, Nevada. It was designed by Tom Fazio and has a length of 7,560 yards.
Initially, the Shadow Creek Golf Course was intened to be a private club for Wynn. But, later on, MGM Resorts International acquired it and opened it for a limited number of guests. After some time, the course was made public with a $500 entry, which has grown immensely over the years.
In 2018, the course saw its first ever huge golfing event, The Match: Tiger vs. Phil. The legendary Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson faced each other in a match-play event.
Later on, the PGA Tour hosted its first and only official tournament at the course, The CJ Cup 2020. Jason Kokrak defeated Xander Schauffele by a margin of two strokes in the event.
The LPGA Tour announced the Shadow Creek Golf Course as the host of their newly launched tournament, the Bank of Hope LPGA Match Play, in 2021. In its first edition, Ally Ewing defeated Sophia Popov by a margin of two and one to receive $225,000 prize money.
Since then, the course has hosted three editions of the tournament. Ji Eun-hee won the 2022 edition, after defeating Ayaka Furue. Recently, in 2023, Pajaree Anannarukarn emerged victorious at the venue.
