Located in the foothills of the Adelaide Hills, to the southeast of the city centre, Mount Osmond Golf Club can trace its origins back to 1927. Up until the 1950s, sheep were allowed on the course, bringing the club an income from grazing rights.
During World War II, the clubhouse was used as a convalescence hospital, with the course allowed to go to seed, but member working bees brought everything on and off the course back to their previous high standards once the war was over.
A major course development took place in 1963 with the construction of a four million-gallon reservoir. This ensured a guaranteed water supply for the irrigation of fairways and greens, which in turn meant that playing surfaces would always be in top condition.
Feature holes include the tough par four 3rd (rated stroke index 1); both short par fours at the 7th and 8th (skirting either side of the reservoir); the par three 16th (the shortest hole on the card); and the par five 18th, returning play to the clubhouse for the first time since leaving the 4th tee.
Interestingly, Sir Donald Bradman won the club championship twice here, in 1935 and 1949.
