It seems that most of the reviews that you see only about RC are based on the fact that it is new, links therefore not as good. I am not going to say that it is as good or as enjoyable as the likes of the Old Course or Dornoch or wherever it it might be that golf began with a number closer to 18 than 20 but those who dismiss it for that reason I feel are going in with a preconceived idea and simply looking to have that confirmed when they play here. Top notch conditioning, wonderful facilities and a course which has its challenges but can be played without feeling like it beats you up. It’s a strange feeling seeing so few people walking around a facility that has so much space but clearly that is the way that owners want it but do feel that if more people were able to play it, more people would appreciate what is a very good golf course.

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.
