Golf has been played at Truro Golf Club for over a century. In 1903, a 9-hole course was established when the golf club was founded and it was this elementary layout that was substantially upgraded by Stanley Thompson in 1930.
A further thirty-seven years passed until the remodelled course was expanded to a full 18-hole track then another couple of decades went by before the layout was renovated to its modern day championship standard in 1987.
As fairways were largely constructed around substantial areas of marshland, it’s no surprise to learn that water comes into play at more than half the holes on this 6,317-yard track.
Truro has hosted many provincial championships down the years, whilst it gained national recognition in 1997 when the Canadian Senior Championship was contested over the course, followed six years later by the Canadian Senior Matchplay Championship.
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.
