St Louis CC moves up 10 spots into the Top 50 on the Classic list-- nice to see it continue to climb.

Musgrove Mill, at one point a top 50 course on the modern list, has fallen off the second hundred list. I never understand why it is not ranked as one of the best in the country.

It means I think it contains slightly more architectural merit than a course I gave an 8.0 and slightly less than a course I scored 8.2

It is really  that simple.


Does it also mean you place the course around 40th or 50th in the nation?  i.e. do you follow, more or less, the scale in the GW Handbook?

Is Dormie's slip due to the conditioning challenges that some have spoke of?  It was moving up nicely until this year:
