Refreshing to read about a man who walks the walk in this excellent profile of Ted Scott by my colleague Josh Berhow. golf.com/news/scottie-s…

@theJeff80 thanks. usually i go with mediocre opening graph and then it's all downhill from there. i was looking for a change of pace.

@JoshSens your opening paragraph on the sinkhole—>wine cellar was 👌 😂

@RyanInAuburn @GambleSands agreed. i've written about it a couple of times this year.

@richiebratton @GOLF_com TPC Sawgrass missed out narrowly. Which courses would you nominate?

@JoshSens @GOLF_com Very fair to say and i think you are dead on. Still surprising those states don't have enough brilliance in their course architecture to make this list.

🚨 The Top 100 Courses in the World list is here! From Pine Valley to Cape Wickham and everywhere in between, take a trip around the globe with our rankings of the best places to play golf for 2025-2026.

@richiebratton @GOLF_com I think it's fair to say that the pros choose those locations for the tax rates and the weather more than for the brilliance of the golf course architecture

@GOLF_com Insanity that there is only one course on this list between Arizona and Florida where, checks notes, most PGA Tour pros make their homes. Not saying its right or wrong, but it is crazy. Anyone have any Arizona courses they think should have been on this list?

@chris_unsworth @KevRedCon @GOLF_com If you go to golf.com and click on the link, you'll see an article about the methodology.

@KevRedCon @GOLF_com And me 🤷🏻‍♂️

@odacovARotten @GOLF_com Personally, I think Fancourt is the best of those, design wise. Pinnacle Point spectacular views for sure. Leopard Creek an amazing experience. I have not seen Blair Athol. The fun for me is in the conversation. Thanks for being part of it.

@JoshSens @GOLF_com Fair enough. Pinnacle point? Fancourt Links? Blair Athol? Leopard Creek? The ones that jump to me off the bat.

@odacovARotten @GOLF_com I have. Which courses there would you say deserve inclusion? Royal Durban was on the list some years ago. Maybe a victim of shifting tastes or new courses nudging it out. One clarification: most panelists aren't writers. Varied professions. All well-traveled golf fanatics.

@GOLF_com Weird not having a single course from South Africa. Almost as if the writers have never been to South Africa…

In advance of GOLF's new World Top 100, which will post Nov. 19, we've been discussing factors that do (don't) affect the rankings. How much does conditioning matter? instagram.com/reel/DQ14hThCR…

The building is Castle Stuart. The course is Old Petty, open for preview play through the end of this month.

No better way to whet your appetite for this week's Walker Cup than this in-depth look at Cypress Point. youtu.be/Cmoy8-fYDmM

@Retiremortgage I just dm-ed you with my email. Happy to discuss

@JoshSens Josh, I have on my bucket list your 4 day golf travel tours . I turned 70 the other day and my brother and I want to golf and fly fish along your Trent jones or maybe Appalachian trail . Would you by some strange reason know which one of your 4 day itinerary are best for fly fish

When he was a kid, Jackson Herrington rebounded from a serious eye injury. Now 19, he'll need a bounce back in the finals of the U.S Amateur. He's 4-down to Mason Howell through 11 holes of their 36-hole match.

quiet on the tee! just not right now. 25 minutes and counting til the start of the u.s. am finals

Turned off John Daly Blvd in SF today and found John Daly II (no relation) warming up for US Am. Backswing way shorter than his dad's-- and on this swing, so was his follow through.

A cool sidelight to the U.S. Women's Amateur is seeing Bandon Dunes in a different light. Even if you've played it often, bet you've never dealt with this setup on the par-3 12th - shortened to 98 yards, with the flag just paces beyond a steep ridge.

If you're looking for a rooting interest in the U.S. Women's Amateur, you could do worse than Pimchompoo Chaisilprungruang, a delightful 19-year-old from Thailand. Not to worry. Her nickname is easy to pronounce.

@JoshSens Adjacent to #Streamsong Red Course a few yrs ago. 🐊 @streamsong

These ain't gopher prints. At David McLay Kidd's golf course-in-the-making at Streamsong, signs of a creature Carl Spackler never had to deal with.

Old Petty, the second 18-holer at Cabot Highlands in Scotland, is rounding into shape. Tom Doak's design opens for two months of preview play on August 1. Full-blown opening next year.
