In this issue:

 

  • Spotlight on Park City, Utah: Public and private options for visiting golfers
  • South of St. Andrews': Kingsbarns and the two Fairmont eighteens are featured in the first of a two-part series
  • Sugarloaf, Maine: Our first visit to this perennially highly-rated course by Robert Trent Jones, Jr.
  • What the Golf World is Talking About:: New developments, courses and closures at and around Bandon, Pebble Beach, Turnberry and Muskoka

This month's issue opens with a detailed assessment of the golf, lodging and dining options in and around Park City, Utah. Easy access, great summer weather and good values can all be found here. Learn how guests of the Stein Eriksen Lodge can gain access to three private courses that are among the best golf options in the area.

As discussed in our July issue, the opening of the Castle Course has put St. Andrews squarely in the sights of the world's top golfers. This month we take a close look at its three immediate neighbors, Kingsbarns and the Devlin and Torrance courses at the Fairmont St. Andrews. All located just south of St. Andrew's, they share the same spit of land and enjoy the same views as The Castle course. That is where the similarities end.

Perhaps no modern course in New England, and certainly no resort layout in the region has received as many accolades as Maine's Sugarloaf Golf Club. Learn why Sugarloaf falls short of such lofty status in our eyes.

What the Golf World is Talking About includes critical new information on developments for anyone considering a near-term trip to Bandon Dunes, Turnberry or Ontario's Muskoka region.
