Fairmont Courses in Jasper, Banff, Whistler Rank Among The Top 59 in Canada
BANFF, 01 August 2023 – SCOREGolf Magazine’s biennial ranking of the Top 59
Canadian Public Courses has returned, and Fairmont Hotel’s grandest of fairway experiences in
Jasper, Banff and Whistler have all been recognized on the coveted 2023 list, including Jasper and
Banff courses achieving top five spots.
No strangers to SCOREGolf accolades, Jasper Park Lodge Golf Club, Fairmont Banff Springs
Golf Course, and Fairmont Chateau Whistler Golf Club have consistently placed in this Top 59
Canadian roster for the past ten years, and have been touted for their beautiful design, bunkering
and jaw dropping mountain settings. Over one hundred architecture enthusiasts comprise
SCOREGolf’s ranking panel and judge courses on nine criteria: beauty, design, challenge, strategy,
Par 3s, Par 4s, Par 5s, conditioning, and fun factor. A course must be rated by at least seven
panelists over the last seven years to be eligible for the Top 59 list.
For those looking to return for another memorable round, or to check off a bucket list item, these
top Canadian courses have guests covered with a variety of packages and offers available through
to the end of golf season. What better way to ‘stay & play’ than to luxuriate on and off the course
at the world-renowned Fairmont Banff Springs, Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge, and Fairmont
Chateau Whistler resorts:

o Pro Tip: Playing short on signature hole #4, Devil’s Cauldron, is not an option – and
bunkers on the right side should be avoided as recovery from them is difficult. - Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge Golf Club

o Pro Tip: Given Stanley Thompson’s creative design, use course management wisely to
avoid the bunkers – many have high lips to mimic the mountain range in front of you. - Fairmont Chateau Whistler Golf Club

o Pro Tip: Distance control and accuracy is a premium when playing signature hole #8, as
was the vision when Robert Trent Jones Jr. designed this natural beauty.
From vacation packages in Banff and Whistler, to a Midweek Golf for Free experience in
Jasper, it is time to embrace the remainder of the season and book a grand golf getaway with
Fairmont Hotels in Canada’s western mountain region.
