Played it a week after the KFT Championship, fastest greens I’ve ever played (~12 stimp with crazy slopes) and was told they were quicker for the championship. Hardest course I’ve played so far. Obviously bad shots were punished but didn’t feel like good shots were as rewarding.

Hardest course I’ve ever played with almost zero room for error. Really cool layout and world class hospitality. But even a good player could lose five balls in a round.

How we rank
This ranking uses each golfer’s scenery rating, on a 0.5–5 scale. Scenery is the scenery score golfers give when they log a round. Every golfer counts once per course: repeat rounds are averaged first, then the course score is the average across golfers. A course needs scenery ratings from at least 5 different golfers. Ties go to the course with more golfers, then the higher Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. State pages include courses across Indiana. Rankings refresh about hourly.
