In a word - superb. Beautiful course in lovely condition with a warm welcome throughout the Club. There is not much to like about Belgium - so much of the northern area is desperately dull but the best of Surrey can be found in at Royal Antwerp.

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.
