I confess that this is my favourite course that I have played, so its elevated status as a maximum of 6 does indeed carry some bias.

But another round there this week did nothing but convince me this is at the ultimate level of golf course architecture and as close to perfect as I have seen .It climbs in my architectural status each time I see it , the simple brilliance of the place just blows me away.The wonderfully subtle colle...

Golf's first great inland course is still one of the world's best.

Willie Park Jr. created the bones of this course but Harry S. Colt made changes at the time of the gutta percha ball and elevated it to world class status (although Colt himself gives Park a lot of the credit for the course). A status that it still, deservedly, enjoys. I found this to be the better ...

There are few places in golf that blend history, beauty, and architectural brilliance quite like Sunningdale’s Old Course.

Designed by Willie Park Jr. in 1901, this is a course that has aged like a fine wine, remaining as relevant and captivating today as it was over a century ago.From the moment you step onto the property, there’s an undeniable sense of occasion. The elegant clubhouse, pristine conditions, the soft hue...

Its earned the nickname of the English Augusta which resonates when you take your seat in the classic clubhouse looking out to the large Oak Tree resembling one at Augusta with the green in the background.

The Old Course was a rollicking medieval adventure through the heathland woods where no two holes were alike. Heroic tee shots like the 10th were complemented by provocative uphill and/or blind holes like the par-3 4th and par-4s with big reveals like my favourite hole the 7th. The Old was incredibl...

A fantastic example of a classic heathland golf course with wonderful variation in holes both length and challenge, sublime architecture, strategic challenge and outstanding conditioning, what's not to like.

Generous width fairways lined with heather mean that if you keep it reasonably straight you will score well but go offline and it will definitely challenge your recovery powers. The course has fantastic balance with three par 4’s under 300 yards as well as two reachable par 5’s where birdies are on ...

Well, I can confidently say Sunningdale Old lived up to all expectation.

I had a bit of a preview marshalling for the Curtis Cup but you don’t quite appreciate the architecture as much as when you physically play the course.Sadly, the weather left a lot to be desired. There was an immense amount of rain the night before which left a lot of standing water. Bittersweet, I ...
