l RESORTS OB SPORTS GOLF & LEISURE x WINTER 2014 x obsports.com "We're maybe 50 yards from the clubhouse and just south of the first tee, so it's ideal for golf tournaments," Molloy said. "The side that faces the Sandia Mountains is all glass and opens onto a huge indoor-outdoor covered patio that is fully conditioned and will seat up to 100 people. It's an ideal place for events of all kinds." Built in 2005 and designed by Scott Miller, the golf course was developed as an amenity to San- dia Resort & Casino. Set against the backdrop of the Sandia Moun- tain Range, the course stretches to nearly 7,800 yards, although the Resort tees play to a more manageable 6,400 yards. The course is routed through the rigid high desert landscape with panoramic views of the Sandia Mountains and the greater Albuquerque region. "It was built at a time when golf courses were getting harder and harder and more unplayable," Molloy said. "Sandia is a total departure from that. People come out here and they have fun." Other projects currently in the works at San- dia Resort & Casino include construction of a four-story parking garage with a climate-con- trolled bridge, and the new Roadrunner Casino with increased seating.
