BEST GOLF COURSES IN SA NAMED

The Golf Digest has just recently released their take on the list of what they would consider to be the top 100 golf courses in South Africa at present.

On their list, Stuart McLean, editor of Golf Digest, commented, "When it comes to Golf Digest's Top 100 Courses, the older courses are certainly under assault from the new creations which are stealing the attention of both golfing tourists and the many newcomers to the game."

He continued to say, "It's important therefore that they seek upgrades and renovations not only to look and play better, but to keep up with the challenges of modern technology. East London, Glendower and Durban Country Club are all investing in makeovers this year."

Also listed are the top 30 golf courses in the worst current conditions.
