Each year we publish three lists that are the foundation of our course-ratings program: Golfweek’s Best Modern Courses, Golfweek’s Best Classic Courses and Golfweek’s Best Courses You Can Play, state-by-state. If you’re looking for only the best in public-access golf, we’ve got you covered with this list of the top 100 Golfweek’s Best Courses You Can Play in the United States, as judged by our nationwide network of raters. (Pictured atop this story: Bandon Dunes Golf Resort’s Bandon Dunes) The members of our course-ratings panel continually evaluate courses and rate them based on our 10 criteria. They also file a single, overall rating on each course. Those overall ratings on each course are averaged together to produce a final rating for each course.
For investors: most important story this week. Link here to The Denver Post -- Xcel Energy unveils $100 million plan to drive more electric transportation. Colorado's largest electric utility wants to help put 1.5 million more electric vehicles on the road.
Minneapolis-based Xcel Energy, Colorado’s largest electric utility, said Wednesday that if it met its goal across the eight states it serves, 20% of the vehicles would be electric in those areas.
Carbon emissions would be cut by nearly 5 million tons annually, utility officials said. The plan would support Gov. Jared Polis’ goal of having about 940,000 electric cars in Colorado by 2030, Xcel Energy Chairman and CEO Ben Fowke said..

California bullet train update:
- horrible sequence of mistakes; now we have a botched bridge project:
- first reported in the LA Times;
A series of errors by contractors and consultants on the California bullet train venture caused support cables to fail on a massive bridge, triggering an order to stop work that further delayed a project already years behind schedule, the Los Angeles Times has learned.
The bridge is longer than two football fields and is needed to shuttle vehicles over the future bullet train right of way and existing BNSF freight tracks in Madera County.
Authorities have yet to finalize a plan to repair the bridge. Late last year, crews installed temporary steel supports to prevent it from collapsing.
Hundreds of pages of documents obtained by The Times under a public records request show the steel supports snapped as a result of neglect, work damage, miscommunications and possible design problems.
