| To many golfers, the best conditioned golf courses are the ones that are lush and green with crisp mowing lines, immaculate landscaping and bright white bunkers. Fifteen years ago, we changed the Conditioning definition in our 100 Greatest ranking criteria to put more of an emphasis on firm and fast conditions to reward courses that achieved ideal playing conditions with less water usage.
Not only is our definition more environmentally sustainable, but firm conditions accentuate the architectural nuances of a course. Based on panelist scores from our new America’s 100 Greatest and Second 100 Greatest rankings, we’ve ranked the 25 best conditioned golf courses in the United States. |
