If you're like most golfers out there, it's tough watching an entire week of the Masters on TV without booking a couple of your own rounds. This excitement, along with a pleasant week of weather in much of the U.S., brought Golf Advisor a tidy uptick in course reviews by golfers.
The Las Vegas area had a great week in particular, checking in three of the top 10 courses in the U.S. But it was the 27-hole North-South-East course at Grand Cypress Resort in Orlando that earned top marks. It's overall score was perfect and also scored high in value and conditions. Rater bodmintel, a mid-handicapper from nearby Kissimmee, praised it as such
"We play many local courses," he wrote. "And these must be the best and quickest greens we encounter."
