Head Men's Golf Coach, University of Arizona Jim Anderson

Since being named Head Men’s Golf Coach at the University of Arizona in June of 2012, Jim Anderson has propelled the program’s resurgence on the national scene with conference championships, All-Americans and unparalleled academic success.
View Jim's Bio ⟩

Spring of 2021 marked seminal moments of championship success on the course and in the classroom. Anderson was named Pac-12 Coach of the Year after guiding the Wildcats to their first Pac-12 Championship, as a team, in nearly 20 years. Brad Reeves became the program’s first Pac-12 Individual Champion since 2008 when he claimed the crown in dramatic fashion in the second playoff hole of the Pac-12 Championships in California. Reeves led the team’s dominance of the Pac-12 Conference Awards becoming Player of the Year as well as a First Team All-Pac-12 selection. Trevor Werbylo joined Reeves in the First Team while David Laskin and Chase Sienkiewicz were voted to the All-Conference Second Team with Sienkiewicz also earning a spot on the Pac-12 All-Newcomer Team.

In addition to the emphatic wins at the Pac-12 Championships and plethora of conference awards, the 2021 spring season saw the Wildcats win three tournaments as a team. Team victories in its home Arizona Intercollegiate event, The Prestige in Palm Springs and then the Pac-12 Championships gave Arizona its most tournament wins in a season since 2004. All three of those wins also saw Wildcats pickup individual wins as Brad Reeves won the Arizona Intercollegiate and the Pac-12 Championships while Trevor Werbylo claimed the victory at The Prestige. The trio of victories and conference titles padded Arizona’s postseason resume as it was selected for NCAA Regionals for a third consecutive season. Spring 2021 also saw championship success off the course as well as David Laskin became the program’s first Pac-12 Scholar Athlete of the Year since Alex McMahon in 2015.

The Wildcats' 2018-19 season featured Arizona's second-straight Arizona Intercollegiate victory as Anderson's squad posted a -37 score at its home course of Sewailo. The Wildcats also had Top 5 finishes as a team at the Showdown in the Rockies, the Saint Mary's Invitational and the Querencia Cabo Collegiate. The impressive season led the Wildcats to the NCAA Louisville Regional, marking the third time Anderson led Arizona to postseason play. Under Anderson's watch, sophomore Trevor Werbylo had a scoring average of 70.73, which is the third-best single-season scoring average in program history. Werbylo was named honorable mention All-American by the Golf Coaches Association of America. Junior David Laskin, who had a scoring average of 72.18, was named first-team Pac-12 All-Academic, while junior Briggs Duce was named second team and fellow junior Brad Reeves was named honorable mention.

Nike Junior Golf Camps provide youth golfers with the tools to improve their game at every level. Jim Anderson and the University of Arizona Men's Golf staff offer a fun and positive environment. These programs are co-ed and designed for children, ages 9 and up, and their parents. The staff is on hand to provide campers with top quality instruction each day. At Nike Junior Golf Camps we accommodate all skill levels. Upon arrival, all participants are evaluated by the staff so that their own instructional needs can be addressed throughout the week.

La Paloma Country Club

Playing at La Paloma isn't your typical experience. One of Jack's earlier designs, our 27-hole course earned the Signature distinction for his high level of involvement in the development of the course from start to finish. Mini-Verde Bermuda greens, dense fairways, seven sets of tee boxes per hole, and pristine white sand bunkers all contribute to a premium round. The spectacular panoramic vistas may just make you forget the challenges of the uniquely playable course.

Ventana Canyon Golf & Racquet Club

Across our pristine 600-acre desert preserve, you’ll find Tom Fazio’s two 18-hole championship courses – tee boxes surrounded by beautiful mountain views, fairways rich with regional flora and fauna and putting greens that glimmer against the dunes behind them. Our impeccably kept grounds and commitment to service reflect the true essence of Ventana Canyon Golf, which has earned the title of best in the country on multiple occasions. Come play and experience it for yourself.
