Southern Highlands Golf Club

Southern Highlands Golf Club is a private eighteen-hole golf course and the most exclusive wealthy neighborhood in the Las Vegas metropolitan area. The golf course was co-designed by Robert Trent Jones and his son Robert Trent Jones, Jr.[1]; it was the elder Jones' final work and only one of four courses they designed together.[citation needed] Many Hollywood celebrities, sports stars, and billionaires have set up residency within the golf club.

[edit] Events and awards

The country club hosts the Governor's Black Tie Invitational, which raises over $1 million annually for local charities.[2] In October 2007, the course was named "One of the Top Residential Golf Courses in the United States" by Golf Digest magazine. The club has hosted two PGA Tour events. [3]
