Cambridgeshire
The Cambridgeshire Area Golf Union is the governing body for the approximately 10,000 male golfers in the county who are members of 19 affiliated clubs. The Union is one of ten that form the Midland Golf Union – a body established in 1897 – and CAGU was the last to join in 1950. The Cambs and Hunts Women’s Golf Ltd looks after the interests of female golfers who are in membership of one the 19 clubs affiliated to the association. The region doesn’t exactly bristle with world-class golf courses but the 36-hole complex at Gog Magog, the delightful parkland course at Saffron Walden and the unique Links Newmarket, stand head and shoulders above the crowd. Gog Magog's Old and Wandlebury courses are both challenging and the Old is a genuine centurion that has hosted the Lagonda Trophy since 1975 with Lee Westwood and Luke Donald among the previous winners. Our Cambridgeshire golf course rankings were updated in December 2023.

Opened as Bourn Golf & Leisure in 1991, the 18-hole layout at Cambridge Golf & Country Club occupies a 120-acre rolling property outside the little village of Bourn, where golfing fairways have replaced the farming fields that were once in place here.
