Phil Mickelson’s PGA Wins at Starr Pass

Starr Pass has origins dating back to 1884, when Richard Starr established a stagecoach trail through the Tucson Mountains — this trail, linking Tucson to the mining boomtown Quijotoa about 70 miles to the southwest, follows what is now the 6th fairway of the Pioneer Course. The golf course officially opened in 1986, with its original 18 holes designed by Craig Stadler and Bob Cupp; those holes are now known as the Pioneer and Gambler courses. Starting in 1987, Starr Pass hosted the Tucson Open (a PGA Tour event) for several years, through 1996. Notably, in 1991, a young amateur Phil Mickelson won the Tucson Open here — a rare amateur victory. 

In 2005, Arnold Palmer designed an additional 9‐hole course, commonly called the “Palmer 9”, expanding Starr Pass from 18 to 27 holes.
