Australian Golf Digest Australia`s Top 100 Golf Courses

Australian Golf Digest has just released in its current edition its list of Australia`s Top 100 Golf Courses. There was a big surprise as Kingston Heath (VIC) ousts Royal Melbourne (VIC) as the new No. 1. This is the first time Royal Melbourne has lost its customary position as Australia`s number one ranked golf course with Kingston Heath crowned as the new leader. Previously most course ranking panels have judged Royal Melbourne on its composite course, the tournament layout that has 12 holes from the west course and 6 from the east. Under the current list Royal Melbourne, West Course comes in at number 3 with the East Course in at number 8. Royal Melbourne`s composite course will hold the 2011 Presidents Cup between the US and an International Team. See the Top 10 Courses listed below.

Little World also located close to Inuyama is a themepark dedicated to the world. You can see 22 countries houses ranging from Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Indonesia, Germany, Italy and France. You can also eat and buy food, accessories and products from those countries. I highly recommend the Sri Lankan Curry, Okinawan donuts, and German beer and sausages. There is sometimes a small circus troupe that perform there. All this you can enjoy in a day.
