Planet Golf Modern Masterpieces by Darius Oliver
Take an amazing, beautifully photographed insider’s view of the 100 greatest golf courses built in the past 20 years with acclaimed golf author and course commentator Darius Oliver. A companion volume to Planet Golf and Planet Golf USA, this gorgeous book offers comments by the world’s leading golf architects and Oliver’s detailed, exclusive first reviews of the 100 new courses, including Cabot Cliffs in Canada, Ardfin in Scotland, Cape Wickham in Australia, Tara Iti in New Zealand, and others in at least 20 countries from Mexico to Morocco, Sweden to South Korea, France to Vietnam—even China. Sure to generate plenty of debate, the book includes a unique, detailed international rankings section, outlining the world’s best, most beautiful, and hardest courses, holes, greens, and bunkers. Oversized, Planet Golf Modern Masterpieces is a treasure trove of ideas, images, and insights for all golf lovers.
A regular contributor to golf ranking panels and co-designer of the incredible new Cape Wickham Links course in Australia, Darius Oliver has visited more than 1,500 golf courses worldwide since starting his Planet Golf series. Renowned globally as the best-travelled and most authoritative voice on golf courses and golf course design, Oliver has now published four golf course volumes and has also contributed to Tom Doak’s updated series of The Confidential Guide to Golf Courses. Oliver's previous Planet Golf volumes were described by GOLF Magazine as “absolutely superb, a stunning achievement." Greg Norman described the first Planet Golf book as “the finest, and most comprehensive, directory on golf courses I’ve ever seen.”
