The much-discussed biennial ranking of the best golf courses in Canada will be released via daily countdowns on SCOREGolf’s digital and social channels in July, while an 18-page section will be devoted to the list in SCOREGolf’s Summer Issue.TORONTO, June 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Golf takes place on a wide variety of canvasses and those who play the game regularly love nothing more than to discuss the courses they both love and loathe. <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=oa0cuNxUJeU8Be1O7s-FqSdEGdKrD7zyWeGaR1Ximw6szc4CZGo6kut0OYMelxDKoL5K4YjasOdutcPgERIlgw==" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="SCOREGolf">SCOREGolf</a> — Canada’s leading golf media brand — helps foster such conversations through its biennial ranking of the country’s best golf courses. It will do so this year for a 20th time with BDO Canada on board as the presenting sponsor, marking an exciting new chapter for a campaign that ignites debates in golf course grillrooms across the country. SCOREGolf’s Top 100 is a deeply involved process by which 95 panellists evaluate courses from coast to coast to coast on nine criteria: Beauty, Strategy, Challenge, Design, Par 3 Holes, Par 4 Holes, Par 5 Holes and Fun Factor. Courses are required to have 10 ratings from panellists and the results see courses separated on the final list by mere decimal points. “The Top 100 is a massive undertaking for us, and a project we love working together with our raters on because we know how passionate Canadian golfers are about their favourite tracks and where those should fall on the list,” said Jason Logan, SCOREGolf’s longtime editor. “Additionally, the Top 100 is a vehicle to recognize excellence in golf architecture and the folks who operate and maintain these beautiful courses.” With BDO’s support as presenting sponsor, this year’s Top 100 will do more to celebrate the courses, people and expertise behind Canada’s best golf experiences. The release will go beyond the rankings with expanded editorial coverage, including in-depth course analysis, category breakdowns, architect interviews and increased spotlight on the people and collaboration behind Canada’s best golf experiences. Those who follow along will have the chance to win one of three grand prizes. Tara Berze, Chief Marketing Officer of BDO Canada, said, “At BDO, we believe great outcomes happen when the right people work together toward a shared goal, in business and in golf. We’re proud to support the Top 100 ranking as it reflects the value of expertise, collaboration and shared commitment.” The 2026 SCOREGolf Top 100 presented by BDO will be counted down from a special location in a seven-day series of videos starting July 22.
