Best Golf Courses In New York, According To GOLF Magazine's Raters

Winged

1. Shinnecock Hills (Southampton) [1, 2] Venue for five U.S. Opens since 1986, most recently in 2018, this is William Flynn’s undisputed design masterpiece.
2. National Golf Links of America (Southampton) [1, 2] NGLA, or “National,” as it’s known, brought Seth Raynor and C.B. Macdonald together for the first time and what they created still stands as a marvel of strategic design.
3. Fishers Island (Fishers Island) [1, 2] Accessible by ferry or air, this exclusive retreat off the Connecticut coast is populated by the oldest of the Old Money crowd, many of whom still enjoy hoofing it.
4. Friar’s Head (Riverhead) [1, 2] Tree-dotted dunes, open meadows and bluff-top views of Long Island Sound highlight play at this 2003 Bill Coore-Ben Crenshaw design.
5. Winged Foot – West (Mamaroneck) [1, 2] Hale Irwin survived the 1974 “Massacre at Winged Foot” U.S. Open to win at seven over par. Geoff Ogilvy didn’t fare much better in 2006, when his five-over total took home the trophy.
6. Garden City (Garden City) [1, 2] Devereux Emmet and Walter Travis share credit for this old-school design that plays across Hempstead Plain on Long Island.
7. Maidstone (East Hampton) [1, 2] Recently restored by Coore & Crenshaw, Maidstone’s glorious edge-of-the-Atlantic location is once again fully evident.
8. Bethpage – Black (Farmingdale) [1, 2, P] The Black intimidates golfers with a sign at the 1st tee that recommends the course “only for highly skilled golfers.”
9. Sleepy Hollow (Briarcliff Manor) [1, 2] This Westchester County course has always enjoyed a spectacular component to it, courtesy of breathtaking views of the Hudson River.
10. Quaker Ridge (Scarsdale) [1, 2] This quiet club across the street from Winged Foot has counted Jack Nicklaus and Pete Dye as admirers. Its outstanding cluster of gently rolling par-4s, notably the 6th and the 11th, provided a terrific canvas for amateurs such as Justin Rose and Jason Gore in the 1997 Walker Cup.
