The best golf courses
Here are my personal favourite top five golf courses in the world, these really are brilliant courses. Get those electric golf trolleys ready, here come the best of the best.
5. At number five- Shinecock Hills
A stunning course that has hosted four US opens so far. Really very challenging, easily going to struggle to get your usual handicap on this course. The course itself was first designed in 1891 with further amendments occuring in 1930, with no changes happening since it just goes to show a perfect course has no faults.
4. The oldest course ever? St Andrews
This is certainly the oldest course in the entire world with golf being played here from as early as the 12 century. Although known as the home of golf it is apparently not very good for newcomers to the course. It is a course that you have to get to know and love before you actually enjoy playing here.
3. Cypress point golf club
Most people are very unlikely to ever get to play here as it only has 250 members but the last four holes of the course have been called the best four of all time. Having never played this course I have to say I have no idea how good or bad it is but it certainly had to come into the top five.
2. Royal County Down is number two
This course is the best course in the UK hands down and was designed wback in 1889 with major works done to it in 1908. Some of the best golf I have ever played has been on this course which is why it is at the number two slot, of course it is a stunning course which helps.
1.Pine Valley is at number one
This course really had to take the number one spot purely down to the fact it is the best looking course I have ever seen. This course has great caddies and in itself is brilliant with the only problem being the 10ft deep bunker with no sand in it! If you get the golf ball into the bunker then there is no way you are going to get out of it.
There you have it my personal favourite top five course in the world. No need to charge up those golf batteries when you have the caddies at these places to drag your clubs around for you.
