GolfcentralSA - South African Golf Course Rankings

Overview

This website provides a system allowing golfers to rate golf courses in South Africa based on a set of criteria to establish a ranking of the courses. Anyone can submit ratings for any (18-hole) course in South Africa. We do plan to extend and later have 9-hole courses rated as well.

Why another system?

There are currently 3 published course rankings for South African golf courses, others have not captured public awareness. So the question really should be, why aren't there more such rankings?

What makes this one different?

We believe we have a very good, clear set of criteria we use to rate courses. Our system is transparent and anyone can see why a certain course ranked high/low. Our user interface is intuitive and easy to use. Our system is flexible and actual.

We realise that not everyone will like our rating criteria and resulting rankings, but we aim to cover as many possible areas we think should be present in measuring the course's (not the venue as a whole) presentation to you as a player. It may happen that the rating and ranking for a course you prefer to play, is lower than a course you dislike - we hope the transparency of the criteria explains why.
