Camden County Golf Course Tops 100 Best-In-Nation List

New Jersey just may be the best place to “tee-up.”

New Jersey placed six gold courses in Golf Magazine’s just-published top 100 list - with Pine Valley topping them all at number 1.

Like he’s done in just about every other poll, Donald Trump’s New Jersey course scored high, too, landing at number 83.

Golf Magazine provided a colorful list on its website, along with summaries and anecdotes for each course:

1. Pine Valley - Pine Valley

According to Golf Magazine: “There’s no secret as to why Pine Valley has been ranked No. 1 in the World by GOLF Magazine since 1985. As architect Tom Doak once expressed, ’Deep down, it’s still golf’s most awesome experience...’”

38. Somerset Hills - Bernardsville

According to Golf Magazine: “A wonderful routing on a tight piece of property not far from the USGA headquarters showcases A.W. Tillinghast’s imagination.”

51. Plainfield Country Club - Edison

According to Golf Magzine: “Despite its charm, intimacy and ingeniously contoured greens, big bashers have thrived at the Donald Ross-designed Plainfield...”

64. Baltusrol (Upper) - Springfield

According to Golf Magazine: “Byron Nelson, Gene Sarazen and Tommy Armour were all in the field when the Upper hosted the 1936 U.S. Open, but little-known Tony Manero emerged the winner...”

79. Ridgewood - Paramus

According to Golf Magazine: “Best of the bunch might be the 291-yard 6th on the Center, which offers a half-dozen routes to the elevated green. Vijay Singh, Matt Kuchar and in 2014, Hunter Mahan have won Barclays PGA Tour events here.”

83. Trump National - Bedminster

According to Golf Magazine: “Co-host to the 2009 U.S. Junior Amateur, won by Jordan Spieth, and venue for the 2017 U.S. Women’s Open and 2022 PGA Championship, this 2004 Tom Fazio creation unfolds over rolling horse country terrain in rural New Jersey, on land that once housed the automaker John DeLorean’s estate.”
