Caledonia Assumes Top Spot in September Golf Insider Rankings

Caledonia Golf & Fish Club in Pawleys Island, S.C. has assumed the top spot in the September edition of the Myrtle Beach Golf Insider Top 25, the Web site reported Tuesday in releasing its monthly rankings.

Dunes Golf & Beach Club moves to No. 2, while the remaining slots in the top 5 (Thistle Golf Club, TPC of Myrtle Beach and True Blue Plantation) remain unchanged from August.

Shaftesbury Glen (No. 20) and The Fazio Course at Barefoot Resort & Golf (No. 22) return to the rankings after a one-month absence, while Long Bay Club (No. 25) reenters the list for the first time since March.

The rankings are determined by golfers who submit their post-play reviews for publication on the Golf Insider's Web site, MBGolfInsider.com. They are based on the aggregate scores of each participating golfer's review, where golfers rate on a 10-point scale their course experience in each of six categories: pro shop, grill, staff, fairways, tees and greens. The September 2011 Top 25 was completed on Oct. 3, with ties separated by total number of reviews for each course:

The Myrtle Beach Golf Insider Top 25 represents a broad consensus of opinion based on thousands of golfer reviews - more than 9,400 since the site's inception, according to Myrtle Beach Golf Insider Editor Jim Maggio.
