Much of the reason the city of Indian Wells spent $13 million to renovate and redesign its Players Course at the Indian Wells Golf Resort is to attract a professional tour like the LPGA to play an event in the city. Joe Williams wants people to remember that would be just one week a year.

“Don’t lose sight of the fact that 51 weeks out of the year we’re a golf resort,” said Williams, the director of golf at Indian Wells Golf Resort. “We are not a tour golf course for those 51 weeks. You have all levels of players that are coming in for the winter who maybe haven’t picked up a club in three months and we want to show them an enjoyable day. I think the golf course will be playable for them.”
