GolfBlog100 is proud to announce its first Top 100 list, GolfBlog100's 2009 Top 100 Golf Courses in the United States. GolfBlog100 is a collaborative ratings effort by the top golf bloggers on the Internet, including:

Each panelist rated golf courses they've played from a list of 540 eligible courses around the world. There was no set criteria or scale, allowing each panelist to use their expertise in evaluating golf courses and defining what makes a golf course great. The final ranking is the result of a sophisticated modeling technique that ensures that the output is the best representation of the collective view of the panelists.

The Golf Blog 100 blog will post 2-3 detailed course profiles per week as well as link to blog posts from its contributors. The goal is to make GolfBlog100.com the first and only stop for golfers looking for comprehensive information of the top golf courses in the world. Please follow us on twitter at http://www.twitter.com/golfblog100. Any questions can be directed to golfblog100@gmail.com

The GolfBlog100 Top 100 U.S. Public list will be released in early 2010, followed by a Top 100 World list later in the year.
