MARYVILLE, Mo. — The city of Maryville last month celebrated the Sechrest 18 golf course’s ranking in February as the No. 1 course in Missouri in the annual Golfers Choice Awards given out by NBC Sports’ GolfPass.
GolfPass reviewers rate golf courses based on the six categories of value, course condition, layout, friendliness, pace and amenities. Reviews are provided by golfers who have visited and played the respective courses.
During Friday’s public reception held on July 28 at the Mozingo Event Center, Mozingo Lake Recreation Park Director Jordyn Greenhaw praised all of Mozingo’s staff, including those who did not regularly work at the golf course, who often had to do double duty at the course while shortstaffed.
The Sechrest 18 was also ranked as the No. 34 most popular course in the country and the No. 4 “value” course in the country by GolfPass.
