Rushcliffe
Located next to the British Gypsum Headquarters, Rushcliffe Golf Club engaged the prolific local architect Tom Williamson in 1909 to lay out a course for the membership. In the modern era, the layout extends to 6,200 yards, playing to a par of 70.
There are no par fives on the front nine and this lack of long holes contributes to an overall par of only 33. Highlights include the short par four 2nd (“Oak Tree”) with four bunkers guarding the green and the 463-yard 8th (“Bushes”) which is rated stroke index 1.
On the longer back nine, the par three 14th (“Rushcliffe”) is regarded as the club’s signature hole. It plays downhill, over a copse of large, mature trees positioned between the tee and the green, with a grassy swale running diagonally across the front of the putting surface.
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.
