The only reason I am not on the list is because I only have submitted 4 courses to the database. That's my story and I'm sticking to it! <insert cheeky emoji here> But seriously, can't argue with the list so far, unless some designers turn up missing from the top 20. It's really hard to compare designers that focus on fictional designs with those that are RCR machines. It's apples to oranges. With fictional courses, we're generally focusing on playability and creativity, and with RCRs we are judging the course based on how well the recreation captures the essence of the real thing. Completely agree, that's why this list is so subjective. When I made this list, I thought about designers that created courses and I couldn't wait to play them.

Nothing warms my heart like knowing nobody out there gives a damn when I publish a new course.

Honored to make the list! Thanks CC! So many great designers in this game. It really is impressive to see so many quality courses still being released. The standard is so high now. That's thanks in big part to all of the early guys who showed us what could be done with this great tool. Biggins, Yeti, Taste, CSU, reebdoog, Ddawg just to name a few off the top of my head. You really paved the way for all of us to follow. The result is countless designers pushing the limits and pushing each other to create the greatest collection of golf courses ever in a video game.

I'm hopeful that Guitardude gets recognition. He hasn't designed anything for quite some time, but he made some of the best and most playable realistic fictional courses. Full disclosure: Yes, he also carried my ass in a couple of collaborations that people didn't hate, too. I'm biased.

Ok going to throw in my guess for who makes his top 5 and the cocky bugger I am, I'm going in order and why.
1. theclv24, I need not say why here, the reasons are beyond endless. 2. Arctic Fury, the man always puts out a brilliant masterpiece with new stuff in each and every design, CC must enjoy that work. 3. Biggins- his work while hes been missing for a while, hopefully not dead still has not been surpassed by many. 4. jwfickett, although hes been gone a while, fairly certain his work is not forgotten, hes done some courses that will live on and on. 5. Not sure here, tossed between tastegw and reebdoog, I'll give the edge to, but only slightly to reebdoog.
That would not be my list.
My list, I could not give a list, so many courses I have enjoyed by so many. I know my # 1 would be theclv24, CC and tastegw would get in there somewhere, but Id have a very hard time after that, just far to much talent out there to even attempt to number them.

This would be more entertaining if it was called "the official definitive TGC designers list"...

Honoured & a wee shocked if I'm honest.
Wondering where Arctic Fury will pop up?

You have so many of my top 5 and 10 designers already on the list, that I'm starting to wonder who the hell you got up there. I'm guessing a few that was before my time. Looking forward to seeing the rest. So update it already

Dude. You can sneeze on the designer and make a course that beats the hell out of everyone. It's no surprise you're on the list.
