JUST IN: GreensKeeper.org Announces BEST PLAYING CONDITIONS AWARDS 2021

Winners Best Playing Conditions for 2021 from GreensKeeper.org

Post Covid-19, It’s finally back! Greenskeeper.org presents it’s Best Golf Playing Conditions Awards for 2021.

Not to be confused with “Worth the Green Fee,” “Best Playing Conditions” is awarded to golf courses open to the public listed on Greenskeeper.org that stand out above the rest with our site users at providing consistently the best greens, fairways, rough, tee boxes and bunkers around.

The job of the superintendent is the life blood of the golf course industry and most important contributing factor to enjoying a golf experience. It takes enormous dedication, resources and expertise by a superintendent and their staff to provide excellent turf conditions. A golf course is a living, breathing organism whose health is constantly in flux. Greenskeeper.org’s trademark and creed, “Know Before You Go”®, centers on communicating these current playing conditions. The rating system used on Greenskeeper.org is in part created by superintendents.

How Awards Winners Are Determined

Golf Course reviews and ratings submitted by our 76,000+ Greenskeeper.org community are tabulated over 12 months. Winners are determined for each area.

We divide awards into 10 Regions or Sections — San Diego County, Orange County, Los Angeles County, Inland Empire, Santa Barbara County, Palm Springs Region, and Ventura County with Regional Winners for Southern Nevada, Southern California, Central California, and Northern California.

We provide the list below in no particular order. This is done on purpose. Any golf course that provides outstanding conditions in their region should not overshadow other golf courses simply because of their location. For most avid golfers, the playing experience is what matters. Knowing where to play in your area is important.

Editor’s Note: Johnny GK and Greenskeeper.Org has been recognized by the California Golf Course Owners Association as Good for the Game of Golf in 2017. It proves that both golfers and golf course operators understand the benefit of working with Greenskeeper.Org. We are the RESOURCE where avid golfers come to make their decision where to play their next round. “Know Before You Go”® with Greenskeeper.Org. You’ll be glad you did.

Golf Course Review Trump National Golf Club Rancho Palos Verdes California

Reviewed by: titleist, west covina,ca

Played Trump National on 06/02/19.

Got a deal from Under Par with free replay after completion of first round.

Customer service was outstanding from the check in at the pro shop, to the starter and cart return person.

Course was in perfect shape. Tee boxes and fairways were like carpets. Rough was lush and the greens were very smooth. I highly recommend this course. It is in fantastic shape right now. The ocean views are so spectacular on every hole.

Enjoy!

Played 12-15-18 early morning as a twosome and finished in a little under 3 hours.

Tee boxes were very nice, good coverage, cut tight, and mostly level. Fairways were very nice and lush with great lies but not much roll out. Rough was in real good shape, not to long but thick and the ball would sit down at times. Was in three green-side bunkers all of which were a little thin and firm. Greens were in great shape, smooth fast and receptive to well struck shots.

Overall course is in great shape. Costumer service was great from arrival to departure. Fun, challenging, scenic course that for me gets a little repetitive on some of the holes.

Utilized a free round emailed to me that has GK wondering if this is a real or not. It was real and the pro shop said they have seen about 150 free rounds in the last week. Not sure their game plan but hey I’m not complaining. The three people I was paired with all utilized a free round as well.

Conditions were A++. From Lush carpet like fairways to soft and smooth greens. I could not find a brown spot on the course. Sand was soft and a few wet from the early morning sprinklers. Rough very penal and about 3 inches long.

This course really messes with your head as there are only a few flat landing spots in the fairways. I can see why they were planning on hosting the grans slam of golf before you know who decided to open his mouth. The Course is very demanding and I don’t remember the last time I couldn’t go for the green on par 5’s because they were to long. There are strategically placed bunkers and large undulating greens. One quick tip is that every putt breaks towards the Ocean and that is always the truth.

Overall this is a fun golf course and will really test your accuracy. I highly recommend you play here if you can snag a deal.Rack rate was $230 yesterday if you had to pay. I do know teeoff.com normally has a deal time for about $120 and that I think is worth it.

Played 7-3-17 on a Teeoff deal for $90 playing as a foursome teeing off at 11:10 and finishing at 3:50.

Tee boxes were in really good shape, level and lush. Fairways were very nice and lush with descent roll out and the ball sitting up nicely. Rough was very healthy and thick, 2-3 inches in most areas with some areas being a little longer. Was in two green-side bunkers that had very nice white sand. Greens were in good shape rolling medium pace and fairly smooth.

Overall course was in really good shape. Rack rate is a little steep here but if you can find a deal it is worth playing.
