The spotlight is on Canadian golf this week for the Presidents Cup. Royal Montreal Golf Club, perhaps the oldest club in North America, moved to its current location in Ile Bizard, four miles west of Montreal, in 1959, and hired Dick Wilson to design its Blue and Red courses. Royal Montreal has been a regular host on the international stage for the Presidents Cup and the Canadian Open, but when it comes to the best Canadian golf courses, there are more courses worth exploring.
Golf Digest’s ranking of the 30 best courses in Canada was determined by Golf Digest’s 100 Greatest panelists, which consists of our 1,900 well-traveled amateur golfers across the United States and Canada—across 10 years worth of data. Golf Digest’s panelists score courses on the following criteria: Shot Options, Challenge, Layout Variety, Aesthetics, Conditioning and Character. Our new ranking will be released next spring, so we’ll see if Royal Montreal moves up after the spotlight this year. (Note: This ranking was published in 2022.)
