I had the pleasure of being invited to play Herdade do Pinheirinho by a local person who felt it is one of the best in the country.

I was alerted to Herdade do Pinheirinho by one of Top 100’s panel members who contributed to this website’s recent Portuguese chart revision – he had it listed as one of the best in the country (even though it was still officially closed) so I just had to have a look on a recent visit to the new Dunas course at nearby Terras da Comporta.

The Story of this Course is quite interesting as it was opened back in 2009 with 27 holes and closed due to bankruptcy in 2015, having been bought in 2020 and slowly recovered almost from scratch.





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.
