Established in 1924, Warwick Country Club lies on the shores of Narragansett Bay, with views of the estuary available from every single hole on the scorecard.
Founded by fifty respected Rhode Island residents in 1924, Warwick Country Club engaged Donald Ross to lay out a 9-hole course for the membership a year after it was formed. It then took thirty years until Geoff Cornish was asked to add another nine in order to fashion a full 18-hole layout.
The following decades saw modifications made to the clubhouse, the construction of a swimming pool, and the introduction of paddle tennis to the club's list of recreational activities. Ron Prichard was also called in at the end of the 1990s to complete a course restoration project.
Today, the layout measures around 6,500 yards from the back tees, playing to a par of 69, with views of Narragansett Bay from every hole on the scorecard. It really is seaside golf of the highest order at Warwick, where winds blow in off the estuary in a different direction on a daily basis.
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.
