Top 100 Golf Course Trivia Quiz

Top 100 Golf Course Trivia Quiz
Fancy yourself a golf course aficionado? A world traveler who prides yourself on your ability to differentiate a Shinkansen from Wisconsin? Can you tell Yorkshire from New Hampshire? Ok, all you self-assured golf course nuts, now is the time to test your knowledge of the top 100 courses in the world with our trivia quiz.

Email your answers to me to be eligible to win an all-expenses-paid trip around the world touring top golf courses. Actually, our lawyers told me to strike that. Instead, you will be eligible to win a slightly marked up ball from The Fishers Island Club.

The courses to choose your answers from are those listed along the left side of the blog. Must be 21 to enter and all decisions of the judges (me) are final. As the Yankees are reigning world champions, No Red Sox fans please. There is a total of 25 points eligible plus two bonus points. Extra credit will be given if you point out a flaw in either one of my questions or answers (fat chance).

I will post the answers in 30 days.
