Overall rating
Wilfried Moroder of MPS Golf Design laid out the course at Golf Club Passeier Meran and this relatively short but engaging track is set spectacularly within the heart of the Alps.
Passeier Meran
One of the most northerly golf layouts in Italy, the short course at Golf Club Passeier Meran first opened for play in 2004 and its terraced fairways are strategically routed around a number of water lily-covered ponds.
A delightful mountain track, designed by Willy Moroder of MPS Golf Design, the course extends to a total of 5,791 metres from the championship tees, playing to a par of 71.
Holes of particular note on the front nine include the short par fours at 5 and 6, which dogleg in opposite directions. On the inward half, the long par three 17th is ranked as the toughest hole, largely due to the rather intimidating water hazard that lies in front of the green.
World Top 100 Golf Courses
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.
