About Tournament Club of Iowa
This is the only Arnold Palmer Signature Course in Iowa. Palmer and his design team laid it out in 2003 across 500 acres of bluffs and running ravines in Polk City, between Big Creek Dam and Saylorville Lake, just north of Des Moines. The Palmer firm's own description is a good summary of the round: a mix of uphill and downhill shots, with carries over deep ravines. Pick tees you can carry.
It's a regular stop for Iowa Golf Association events. It hosted the IGA Match Play in 2006, 2009 and 2015 and the Iowa Senior Amateur in 2013, then the Iowa Amateur itself in July 2018, the first time that championship came here.
It's one of 63 courses Yoink watches in the Omaha, Lincoln & Des Moines area, and the closest alternative is Otter Creek Golf Course, about 6 miles away — handy when your first choice is booked solid.
