Twin Warriors
Laid out amongst the arroyos and canyons of the Rio Grande Valley, the Gary Pranks-designed golf course at Twin Warriors Golf Club is one of two 18-hole layouts operated by the Santa Ana Pueblo. This layout operates from the Hyatt Regency Tamaya Resort & Spa while the Santa Ana Golf Club course is located next to the Santa Ana Star Casino Hotel, just a two-mile drive away.
In The American Private Golf Resort Guide, Daniel Wexler describes the course as “a tough track to be sure, but also a strategic one which regularly incorporates both the desert terrain and several ancient Indian cultural sites.”
The author continues: “The 3,933-yard front nine offers the 197-yard 4th (whose green is fronted by the club’s lone water hazard) and the 208-yard Redan 9th. Both back nine par threes are fairly natural designs (the 186-yard 13th playing to a clifftop green, the 244-yard 15th skirting a Cliffside cultural site) before the 648-yard 16th descends over 100 feet past sacred Tuyuna Mountain on the way home.”

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.
