[V. Kmetz]

Just say, the names...1, 2, 3...Answer the questions and it will be...Speak the truth and bring to light what you would do with a Master's right....Ali Baba, Open Sesame...

1. In retrospect, what is the finest course that you have played the least?


2. If you could host a professional major at a course that has neither hosted one, isn't slated to host one, or hasn't hosted one in more than 25 years, which course would that be? (Facility is no matter; the Golf Genie conjures a site plan, you get to do set-up)


3. What is the best course on which you played your best round? (The Genie says that if this is the same as #1, devolve to the next choice)

The Genie kindly asks that you not list more than three (3) courses total, as that is what has been asked for in response.  No ties, no alternate or international versions or time traveling. In addition to paving your return visit(s), the Genie will also get you in the Par 3 contest at Augusta paired with contestant of choice, if you comply.

Sand Hills


What is the best course on which you played your best round?

My first go-round at NGLA was solid.

[Tom ORourke]

1. Pine Valley - once
2. Aronimink
3. Huntingdon Valley

[Scott Szabo]

1.  Sand Hills
2.  Sand Hills
3.  Ballyneal (68)

[Shane Wright]

1. Royal County Down - 2plays
2. Royal Portrush - needs the Open to return
3. Royal County Down 76 from tips

[BHoover]

1. The Golf Club (played it just once)
2.  Prestwick
3.  Brookside CC (Canton) (75 from the tips)

[Matthew Rose]

1. Commonwealth on the Melbourne Sandbelt (once)

2. Pine Valley. It will never happen, but it's a nice pipe dream. To think a course consistently rated the best in the world has never hosted a major championship is sad, even if there are a lot of good reasons for it not to happen.

3. Fossil Trace (72)
(I have two 70s but they were at Park Hill)

[Chris Cupit]

1.  Pine Valley (1)
2.  NGLA

[Tim Gavrich]

1. Palmetto GC, probably

2. I'll be a homer and say my home course, Pawleys Plantation G&CC. I'd love to see what scores would be shot here.

3. Yale--shot 68 on my own ball in the state Four-Ball tournament a couple summers ago.

[Eric Smith]

St. Andrews

Renaissance Club

Harbour Town

[Joe_Tucholski]

1. Old Mac
2. Cruden Bay - would be interested to see how they handle quirk
3. Eisenhower Golf Club at the Air Force Academy - Not as solid a course as many listed but it was in my whip it out top 25.

[Thomas Dai]

1) Muirfield
2) Royal Aberdeen
3) Carnoustie

All the best

                              { did shoot an 80 from the back at Plainfield }

[Matthew Petersen]

1. In retrospect, what is the finest course that you have played the least?

Pebble Beach

Pine Valley

3. What is the best course on which you played your best round? (The Genie says that if this is the same as #1, devolve to the next choice)

Ventana Canyon

[Matt Bosela]

1. NGLA
2. Pine Valley (full disclosure - I haven't played here but that wasn't mentioned as a prerequisite by the O.P.)
3. Bethpage Black

[Anders Rytter]

Quite a few of the very good courses i've played have been one-timers (so far) but
1. Crystal Downs

Would love to see their short game here
2. Ballyneal

3. Carnoustie

[Jason Topp]

Not sure I understand the questions because 1 and 3 are doubles, but

1.  Royal Melbourne West - 1 time  (course I like the best I have played once)
2.  Kingsley Club
3.  Bunker Hills (74) - None of my best scores in stroke play competition were on very good courses.  I don't really consider rounds outside of competition as legitimate candidates for best round (too many conceded putts, too much stroke control).  Bunker Hills is my favorite of the courses where I have posted a decent number.
