Pronghorn Golf Club (Fazio)
The Cascades form a dramatic backcloth to the up-market Pronghorn Club and architect Tom Fazio has used the fascinating, petrified landscape to create a dramatic Fazio signature golf course.
The Cascade Mountain range forms part of the Pacific Ring of Fire – a ring of mountains and volcanoes which horseshoe around the Pacific Ocean. The Cascades form a dramatic backcloth to the up-market Pronghorn Club and architect Tom Fazio has used the fascinating, petrified landscape to create a dramatic Fazio signature golf course.
The private Fazio course opened in 2006, two years after the public Pronghorn Nicklaus layout debuted and the resulting 36-hole golf facility is of such quality that its developers are fully entitled to proclaim Pronghorn as the premier golf community in the Pacific Northwest.
Notable holes on the back nine include the short par four 14th, the very long par four 15th and par five 18th where a combination of just about every possible golfing hazard – sand, water, rocks and trees – has been used to defend par at the home hole.
The latest ranking of the Top 100 Golf Courses in the World serves as the ultimate global golf bucket list. Most members of our World Top 100 Panel are seasoned golfers, each playing 20-30 of these courses annually while travelling extensively over decades to form their opinions on others. We recognise that opinions vary—even among our panel members. Rankings are subjective, and there are undoubtedly 50 or more courses in the UK and USA alone that could easily fit onto this list.
