No Shock: Riviera Still A Player Favorite; Only A Few Vote For Pebble And Augusta

Even in it’s mangled state, Riviera remains a player favorite according to players sampled for Golf.com’s annual Anonymous Player poll.

What is surprising: how few gave votes to Pebble Beach or Augusta National.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TOUR COURSE? 

Riviera: 20%

Muirfield Village: 16%

Harbour Town: 8%

TPC Sawgrass: 8%

Pebble Beach: 6%

Quail Hollow: 6%


Whoa…go on…

Augusta National: 4%

Bay Hill: 4%

Torrey Pines South: 4%

TPC San Antonio: 4%

Old White Greenbrier: 4%

And the resounding winner in least favorite also appeared on the favorite list with as many votes as Augusta National. Go figure:

WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE TOUR COURSE? 

TPC San Antonio: 16%

None: 12%

Trinity Forest: 8%

TPC Louisiana: 6%

Bethpage Black: 4%

CC of Jackson: 4%

Coco Beach G&CC (Puerto Rico): 4%

GC of Houston: 4%

Quail Hollow: 4%

Silverado: 4%

TPC Southwind: 4%

Not too many surprises on that list, other than the unfortunate disdain for Trinity Forest, which may be as much about location, environment and eccentricity of features than anything else.
