The subject of which are the best courses is always
a contentious one, and there are many lists produced
by various publications. Yorkshire Golf have partnered
with top100golfcourses.co.uk
who we believe have the definitive list. Top100golfcourses
compile their list by amalgamating the top 100 courses
lists from all publications over the last few years.
Top100golfcourses have now extended their list well
beyond the top 100 and Yorkshire Golf have referenced
the full list to provide the top seven courses in
Yorkshire and three further courses regarded as ‘gems’.
