PARK CITY, Utah – Tiger Woods and his golf course design firm, TGR Design, have announced a new Championship 18-hole golf course in Park City, the first of its kind in the Mountain West.
The Marcella Club course will be Woods’ tenth course with TGR Design. However, it is his first mountain course and first 18-hole course in Utah.
I’m excited to announce my latest golf course design project at Marcella Club in Park City, Utah!

Marcella Club is facilitating the new course. The club is a partnership between two communities (Marcella Mountain and Marcella at Jordanelle Ridge) in the Park City area. Marcella Club is a private club with amenities located on the slopes of Deer Valley, Main Street, and Jordanelle Ridge.
Jordanelle Ridge is the site where the course will be located.
“I couldn’t be more excited to be partnering with Marcella Club to design and create a new championship golf course just outside Park City,” said Woods.“Utah is an incredible place, with favorable year-round weather that offers opportunities to be active outdoors throughout all four seasons – golfing, skiing, biking, hiking, and fishing – the list goes on and on.
A new golf course was announced this morning near Park City that will be designed by Tiger Woods. Lots of people who heard the news are wondering about the water. 99% of Utah is in severe drought.

Tiger Woods, TGR Design Comes To Utah
The other TGR Design courses are located in Mexico, the Bahamas, Texas, Missouri, California, Illinois, and Florida.
With the course announcement, Marcella Club becomes the only private ski community with a golf membership in the area.
The course will be the first of a 36-hole facility integrated into the natural landscape in a scenic location. Just minutes from Park City, the course will offer unmatched views along Utah’s longest and highest-elevation golf course.
