St Neots

St Neots is the oldest golf club in Cambridgeshire, founded in 1890. The club moved to its present site in 1912 when Harry Vardon laid out a new 9-hole course for the members.

A further nine holes were added in the mid 1960s when land became available to the north of the River Kym, forming the attractive 18-hole parkland course that’s in play today.

“Water features strongly on the front nine,” writes David Hamilton in The Golfers Guide to East Anglia, “but only wild play will find a watery grave coming home. Perhaps the 7th is the signature hole which requires an accurate tee shot across the river.”

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.
