It's summer, and that means it's time to golf.
Golfweek released its list of the top private golf courses in the United States, and five from Indiana made the cut. See which courses are on the list:
Built in 1998, Victoria National is located in Newburgh and is carved from an abandoned coal mine. It features 18 holes that stretch 7,209 yards. It tied for 53rd on Golfweek's list of the top modern courses in the U.S.
Crooked Stick Golf Club is located in Carmel and was established in 1964. It has hosted the 1991 PGA Championship, the 1993 U.S. Women's Open and more prestigious tournaments. Crooked Stick was built by well-known designers Pete and Alice Dye. It was tied for 76th on Golfweek's list of the top modern courses in the U.S.
The historic nine-hole golf course in Culver opened in 1924 and was created by noted Golden Age golf architects William Langford and Theodore Moreau. In 2015, Bobby Weed Golf Design restored the golf course at Culver Academies. It was ranked the 98th-best classic course (built before 1960) by Golfweek.
Designed by legendary golfer Jack Nicklaus, Sycamore Hills, located in Fort Wayne, opened in 1989. The 18-hole course has hosted 2009's USGA Women's State Team Championship, several Junior PGA Championships and the 2013 USGA Girls Junior Championship, among other notable tournaments.
