Tom Weiskopf (with Phil Smith) designed Black Desert Resort Golf Course in Ivins, Utah — the final course Weiskopf completed before his death in August 2022. The course opened May 27, 2023 on a site of dramatic black lava fields and red-rock formations in the Greater Zion area, a setting unlike anything else in American resort golf. Black Desert sits at #35 on Golf Digest's America's 100 Greatest Public Courses and #34 on Golfweek's Top 100 Best Courses You Can Play (2025). Golfweek ranks it #1 in Utah (Best Courses You Can Play state-by-state) and #96 on Top 200 Modern Courses. Golf Digest named it one of the Best New Courses of 2023. Remarkably, Black Desert hosts both a PGA Tour event (Bank of Utah Championship — the first PGA Tour event in Utah in 60 years) and an LPGA event (Black Desert Championship) — making it one of only three courses in the country with events on both tours (alongside Tiburon Golf Club and Pebble Beach).
