Four Award-Winning Myrtle Beach Golf Courses Represented By The Brandon Agency Earn Top Honors

posted on 03/21/2011

Four Myrtle Beach area golf courses represented by The Brandon Agency have been named to Golfweek’s 2011 list of the “Best Courses You Can Play” in their annual poll. The four golf courses earning Top 10 honors in South Carolina include: Caledonia Golf & Fish Club (No. 3); The Dunes Golf & Beach Club (No. 5); True Blue Plantation (No. 7); and TPC Myrtle Beach (No. 8).

Golfweek also named Caledonia Golf & Fish Club, a Mike Strantz-designed course, to its Top 100 Best Modern Courses in the United States; and The Dunes Golf & Beach Club, a historic Robert Trent Jones-designed course, to their Best Classic Courses in the United States.
TPC Myrtle Beach is the only Grand Strand golf course to be awarded a 5-star designation by Golf Digest.
“We are very fortunate to represent some of the best golf courses the Myrtle Beach area has to offer,” said Scott Brandon, president and CEO of The Brandon Agency. “For years, our company has been recognized as a reliable and respected source by the golf industry and the golf media. Our agency represents many companies spanning various industries, but our solid relationships with many partners in golf industry have always been an asset for us.”

To produce Golfweek’s Best Courses list, an expert team of 675 course raters annually identifies the best layouts from two distinctly different eras: pre- and post-1960, representing “modern” and “classic” golf design, respectively. The raters surveyed more than 2,200 courses based on Golfweek’s strict standards of evaluation including ease and intimacy of routing, integrity of design, quality of feature shaping, natural setting and overall land planning among other categories. Raters submitted more than 51,000 votes to create the 2011 Best Courses list.
