Golfweek's Best 2024: Top 50 Modern Courses in Great Britain and Ireland

Welcome to Golfweek’s Best 2024 rankings of the Top 50 Modern Courses in Great Britain and Ireland – built in or after 1960 – as determined by Golfweek’s Best Raters.

The members of our course-ratings panel continually evaluate courses and rate them based on our 10 criteria. They also file a single, overall rating on each course. Those overall ratings on each course are averaged to produce a final rating for each course. Then each course is ranked against other courses in Great Britain and Ireland to produce the final rankings.

Listed with each course below is its average ranking, location, designers and year opened.
