Tiffany Greens Golf Club

Tiffany Greens is Robert Trent Jones Jr.'s 1999 design in the Kansas City Northland, a 7,055-yard par-72 layout that plays considerably tougher than its yardage card suggests, 74.1 rating and 138 slope from the tips, thanks largely to a creek that threads through the middle of the routing and forces multiple carry shots in the fourth-through-seventh-hole stretch. The risk-reward par-5 sequence is vintage Jones Jr.: a forced carry across a fairway inlet rewards the bold, penalizes the hesitant, and the next three holes all either carry or flirt with the same creek. Shortly after opening, Tiffany Greens hosted the Champions Tour's TD Ameritrade Championship, and the course's reputation as a Kansas City anchor public course has held steady ever since. Voted #1 in the Northland by local publications repeatedly, it pairs naturally with Stone Canyon across the metro for an east-west public-course weekend. Bent-grass fairways and greens in unusually good condition for a Kansas public track, the membership-less public model the ownership has kept since opening keeps access straightforward.
