St.
George, UT – April 2024 / NewsmakerAlert:
Black
Desert in St. George, Utah and CADDIEMASTER®,
the premier provider of caddie related services, announce a new partnership
to further elevate the golf experience at the award-winning golf course.
The partnership began in late March with CADDIEMASTER facilitating
the day-to-day operations of Black Desert’s caddie program providing forecaddie
services to guests.
Since
opening in May 2023, the daily fee golf experience and service at Black
Desert have been five star, with 15-minute tee time intervals, food and
beverage included with green fees, a text service for on-course, on-demand
food and drink delivery, as well as high-tech carts with GPS and well-stocked
coolers. With the addition of CADDIEMASTER forecaddies, service
levels will be taken to the next level, matched only by the property’s
awe-inspiring natural surroundings and incredible Weiskopf design.

“Black
Desert is already making a mark in the golf world and we couldn’t be more
excited to be a part of it,” said Dan
Costello, President of CADDIEMASTER.
When
making tee times at Black Desert Resort Golf Course golfers will have a
forecaddie assigned to their group, as the forecaddie fee is included in
green fees (gratuities not included). During the round, forecaddies will
track ball flights off the tee, provide yardages, read putts, and help
the group maintain pace of play.
CADDIEMASTER,
a Troon® Company located in Ponte
Vedra Beach, Fla., is the premier provider of caddie services, including
turnkey management, technology, as well as training and consulting solutions.
With clients such as Pebble Beach, Pinehurst Resort, Whistling Straits
and roughly 70 other resort destinations and private clubs throughout the
country and abroad, the very best properties partner with CADDIEMASTER
to elevate their golf experience.
Surrounded
by red rock mountains and carved amid ancient black lava fields, Black
Desert opened for play in May of 2023 and is the last golf course designed
by the great Tom Weiskopf prior to his passing away from pancreatic cancer
in Aug. of 2022. The course is characterized by the presence of ancient
basalt rock formations seamlessly integrated into the landscape, creating
a visually stunning contrast against the lush green fairways. Recognized
as one of the Best New Courses of 2023 by Golf Digest and one of
the Top Resort Courses in the U.S. by Golfweek, Weiskopf’s 19-hole
golf course will host a PGA TOUR event this fall and an LPGA Tour tournament
in 2025. Tickets for this year’s Black Desert Championship will be available
in the coming months. Register for ticket notifications at www.BlackDesertChampionshipMens.com.
