All golfers have favorite courses to play, and most of us have a bucket list of courses we would like to play. So here’s the catch.
I want you to choose the Top 10 Golf Courses you have ever played, BUT, they have to be in the Top 100 Courses in the World.
As both Golf Digest and GOLF Magazine publish top 100 course lists, you can choose from either. Just click on the links to find out which courses you have played.
Here are my Top 10 Courses in the World that I have played.
