One great aspect of our sport is the ability to play the same game, on the same course as the pros. TPC Las Vegas was a great place to do just that, until this year.   

This year TPC Summerlin has been under renovation. Summerlin is primarily a private course, with the exception of MasterCard holders on certain occasions. Members have been playing TPC Las Veags during the renovation. That left the public out in the cold for a while. TPC Las Vegas has been closed to the public this year. 

Good News! TPC Las Vegas reopens to the public at the end of Sept 2022. 

Decided to check out the pool party at the new Virgin Hotel in Las Vegas. Elia Beach Club, 11am to 6pm Fri, Sat & Sundays, Tickets $20 and they have a DJ.  Virgin is where Hard Rock used to be. Man I miss that place! 

Cocktails are $20, day beds are $2000 a day, even a 2 chairs and umbrella is $500. But! I have some tips if you're on a budget. Dont be early, wait til after 1pm, once the pool area fills up, people are socializing and sitting everywhere. Slam a few drinks before you hit the pool to save money. Make sure you hydrate! Heat plus alcohol will dehydrate you.  

It was a really friendly crowd. After a few drinks I decided to go on the stage below the DJ and dance. Next thing I know I had 50 people up there with me. A few hours later, after it thined out, I finally got my camera out and took a short video.

I plan on going once a week or so this summer, we should get a group together, message me if you are interested in coming along.
