Lyckorna Golfklubb lies to the south of the seaside resort of Lyckorna, founded by Scotsman Robert MacFie in 1877. For many years, it was a popular spa destination, along with nearby Ljungskile.
The golf club was formed in 1967, becoming the 100th member of the Swedish Golf Association, with holes arranged as two returning nines on land lying between the E6 main road and the coastline.
Notable holes include the 330-metre 5th, with a ditch crossing diagonally in front of the green, and the 410-metre 7th (rated stroke index 2) which doglegs left past bunkers on either side of the fairway.
The back nine begins with a strong par four (a stream cuts across the fairway 100 metres short of the green) then a lovely par three features at the 17th, where small ponds protect the right and rear of the green.
World Top 100 Golf Courses
The latest ranking of the Top 100 Golf Courses in the World serves as the ultimate global golf bucket list. Most members of our World Top 100 Panel are seasoned golfers, each playing 20-30 of these courses annually while travelling extensively over decades to form their opinions on others. We recognise that opinions vary—even among our panel members. Rankings are subjective, and there are undoubtedly 50 or more courses in the UK and USA alone that could easily fit onto this list.
