Founded in 1894, Purley Downs Golf Club soon had a 9-hole course in play which was extended to 18 holes in 1903 by J.H. Taylor when further land became available. The club’s hilly downland course was altered again in 1920 and little has changed since.

It is arguable that, from the 1920s to the mid 1980s, the beating heart of English golf wasn't the links courses of the coast, or the inland heathland gems but instead the unassuming suburban courses built on the edge of the late Victorian and early Edwardian towns and cities.

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.
