100-91 |
90-81 OF SCOREGOLF‘S TOP 100 CANADIAN COURSES
90. Predator Ridge Resort – Predator – Public
Les Furber’s Predator Course at Predator Ridge is a thrilling ride that’s heavy on elevation changes, windswept fescue areas, pot bunkers and massive greens. It drops to number 90 this time around.
89. Royal Montreal Golf Club – Red– Private
The Red Course at Royal Montreal cracks the Top 100 for the first time and does so at number 89. It’s a little-known secret that many Royal Montreal members enjoy playing the Red over the more esteemed Blue given its high playability factor.
88. Copper Point Golf Club – Point – Public
Copper Point’s Point Course moves up one spot to number 88 on this year’s Top 100. The Gary Browning design features wide fairways and plenty of elevation changes through a forested terrain.
87. Cobble Beach Golf Links – Public
One of many Doug Carrick creations that always makes the Top 100, Cobble Beach is a gorgeous course on the shores of Georgian Bay. The links-like design features plenty of fescue and tricky collection areas around greens.
86. Fairmont Chateau Whistler – Public
The Fairmont Chateau Whistler in the popular B.C. playground is a wild ride through Douglas firs in the slopes of the Coast Mountain Range. The Robert Trent Jones, Jr., design drops this time around, coming in 86th.
85. Eagle Ranch Resort – Public
Eagle Ranch in B.C.’s interior is a splendid resort course designed by Bill Robinson that features holes perched along ancient bluffs overlooking the Columbia River. A true escape from the stresses of daily life, it ranks 85th.
84. Royal Ottawa Golf Club – Private
Tom Bendelow and Willie Park, Jr. — heavy hitters from golf’s golden age of architecture — combined on Royal Ottawa, a wonderful course known for back-to-back par 3s on the inward nine that possess devilish greens. It ranks 84th.
83. Waskesiu Golf Course – Public
Making its Top 100 debut is Waskesiu, a Saskatchewan course designed in part by Stanley Thompson. It is scenic, funky, fun and unique, and everything you could want in a golf course if you are looking for something a little different.
82. Bear Mountain Resort – Valley – Public
The Valley Course at Bear Mountain north of Victoria has slowly but surely taken over from the Mountain Course as the resort’s top-ranked track. It is a subtler course with the par-3 14th and risk-reward par-5 15th the clear highlights.
81. Deer Ridge Golf Club – Private
When it comes to challenging finishing stretches, it doesn’t get much tougher than the Thomas McBroom-designed Deer Ridge in Kitchener, Ontario. The par-3 16th is particularly stunning and helps the course to a ranking of number 81.
