Top courses in the world...

With a baby in the house, I realize there is little chance I'll play anything further in Golf magazine's top 100 in the world. But it has been a good year nonetheless.... There had been talk of getting to Pinehurst No. 2 this year, though it didn't happen. Next year I am very keen on trying to get to California -- where the seaside delights await.

Played to date:

1) Pine Valley
3) Muirfield
6) The Old Course
14) Merion
16) Royal Dornoch
17) Turnberry
19) Pacific Dunes
22) Seminole

26) Carnoustie
57) TPC at Sawgrass
64) Highlands Links
