We always see rankings for the &#8220;Best Myrtle Beach Golf Courses&#8221;, &#8220;Top Myrtle Beach Golf Courses&#8221; but one list that you never see is the<strong> Worst Golf Courses in\u00a0Myrtle\u00a0Beach<\/strong>. \u00a0Well, it&#8217;s time to change that. I did a blog back in the Summer of 2009, titled the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.northmyrtlebeachgolf.com\/thegolfblog\/2009\/06\/top-5-worst-golf-courses-in-myrtle-beach\/\">Top 5 Worst Courses in Myrtle Beach<\/a>. That blog was about<strong> my own<\/strong> ranking system. Since then, we have\u00a0implemented\u00a0a golfer voting system that allows golfers to vote for their favorite (and least favorite) courses on a 1-5 basis.<\/p>\n<p>In this case, I know these courses get a lot of play, however, no one is voting for them. Does that mean they are bad golf courses? Nope!<strong> I have never played a bad golf course anywhere.<br \/>\n<\/strong> What I have played are golf courses with bad conditions.<\/p>\n<p>However even when a golf course is in bad condition, your opponent is playing the same conditions. Remember, the ol saying goes, &#8220;A bad day at the course, is better than a Good Day at the office.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>The Top Worst Myrtle Beach Courses, aka. \u00a0&#8220;The Weakest Links&#8221;<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Palmetto Greens<\/strong> &#8211; coming in as the 94th ranked golf course for Spring 2012 with a 1.80 out of a possible 5.0, leads them to the #1 position as the overall winner of the Worst Myrtle Beach course.<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northmyrtlebeachgolf.com\/golf-courses\/cypress-bay.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cypress Bay<\/a> &#8211; <\/strong>Ranked as the 93rd course in Myrtle Beach, Cypress Bay has recently gone under renovations to the entire facility.
