Designed by Arnold Palmer



Highland Nine at The Players Club at Deer Creek, carved into the rolling landscape of West Omaha, offers a unique proposition: a condensed, challenging layout imbued with the spirit of the full 18. This is not a mere afterthought; it's a meticulously designed nine-hole course intended to test every facet of a golfer's game.
While not widely chronicled in architectural history, the Highland Nine, like its larger counterpart, reflects a modern approach to course design, prioritizing playability without sacrificing strategic depth. The terrain lends itself to subtly undulating fairways and strategically placed bunkers that guard deceptively small greens. Here, accuracy reigns supreme. The course subtly favors those who can work the ball; expect doglegs, both right and left, and approaches that demand precise distance control.
