The latest ranking of the Top 100 Golf Courses in the World serves as the ultimate global golf bucket list.

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.
