The Dunes course at The Prairie Club saw the most significant jump in the rankings as it moved up nine spots to No. 86. KemperSports has managed The Prairie Club since early 2012.

All four 18-hole courses at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort, which is owned by Mike Keiser and has been managed by KemperSports since opening in 1999, were featured among the top-25 courses – the most of any one resort or destination in the country.
