My favorite course that i have played is Gladstan GC in southern Utah. its kinda my home course so it holds a special place in my heart. I havent had the honor of playing Pebble Beach and Sawgrass ( hole # 17 of course). Hopefully someday!

Royal Portrush

Many people think of Ballybunion and Royal County Down when they talk of the great Irish links courses, but until you have played Royal Portrush, you are denying yourself the pleasure of probably the best course in the world (Darren Clarke thinks so anyway...)

The Frog at the Georgian Resort just outsdide of Atlanta. Wow, is it a fun course, and so beautiful. Very moderate greens fees too!

my favourite has to be either St Andrews (old) or La manga (south) they are both great courses along with lots and lots of other golf courses out there. I have played other good ones on the Algave and some over in Florida.

I have the honour of playing in the home of golf Scotland.. No affence but courses in america are very fake and not a true challenge for the players.. But over in scotland its a different thing.. Rough is rough not 0.2 inch grass.. Bunkers arent painted white.. Why do hardly any of the big named players in america ever play in europe? The open and matchplay and thats it.. Need to expand there playing

I feel a need to respond to your post. I even registered here to do so. Do you understand that a links course is necessarily different than a parkland course? I am in Michigan and we have dozens of REAL, great courses but we are not by the sea so the conditions are different. Should we not play golf due to our environment being different?

By the way, the courses I play in Michigan are wonderful with great elevation changes, real brown sand and great grass. Some have beautiful trees which can be penal if you miss a fairway. Most courses I play have thick rough of 3-4".

I don't mean to be mean to you but your point of view is slanted and narrow minded and I find it offensive. Thanks, Mike.

Narrow Minded? In the competitions over there the courses you use are fake, Notice when players come to Scotland they never shoot ridiculous scores like -21, Thats because they cant handle playing on a real course in challenging conditions, Tiger has won at St Andrews but if he came over on a usual day he would struggle to break par, golf is meant to be a game where you struggle to break par but in america you have stupid scores and I mean stupid, You described thich rough as 3-4" In scotland that is the fairway, you would be laughed off a course for saying that, You can clearly see that the courses fairways and bunkers are dyed and thats not golf it's artificual golf aka not proper golf, Scotland would never do that, Two different places and In my mind a true place and a false place. It's just funny and sad to see how low america will go to make her courses look good, try sticking with natural things instead of changing them so that it looks good in front of the cameras. I find your comments offensive and am treating them as disrespect
