Located on the outskirts of Tulsa, midway between Jenks and Broken Arrow, the 18-hole layout at Cedar Ridge Country Club was created by a group of local businessmen in the late 1960s who engaged architect Joe Finger to fashion a 200-acre dairy farm into one of the best courses in the local area.
The club has hosted many state championships and national qualifying events but perhaps its finest moment to date was when the U.S. Women’s Open was held here in 1983, with Australian Jan Stephenson winning her third and final major by one shot from her nearest challengers.
Tripp Davis was hired in 2016 to carry out a course renovation, three holes at a time, which involved a program of tree removal and rebuilding bunkers using the Better Billy Bunker system, reducing the number of sand hazards in the process by almost a third.
The latest ranking of the Top 100 Golf Courses in the World serves as the ultimate global golf bucket list. Most members of our World Top 100 Panel are seasoned golfers, each playing 20-30 of these courses annually while travelling extensively over decades to form their opinions on others. We recognise that opinions vary—even among our panel members. Rankings are subjective, and there are undoubtedly 50 or more courses in the UK and USA alone that could easily fit onto this list.
