SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Eagle Mountain Golf Club made Golf World magazine’s list of the Top 50 Public golf courses, as part of the publication’s inaugural Readers’ Choice Awards that was published in October 2008. The 2009 ranking relied on input from Golf World’s readership during a six-month rating period where golf facilities throughout the country were evaluated across multiple criteria to identify the nation’s premier facilities. The final rankings were based on more than 21,000 individual golf course ratings.
“We are very pleased to receive this award from Golf World,” said Phil Green, President of OB Sports, management firm for Eagle Mountain Golf Club. “Golf World’s readers are among the most avid golfers out there. It’s truly gratifying to be recognized by such a golf-savvy group of people.”
