When I go to a golf club, especially a well-established one, I like to feel like a member for the day. On tour in Dorset playing what are widely regarded as the top four...
How can Cannes-Mougins golf country club only be rated 11th in South East France? Having just come back from playing it, chronically out of season in early December, I wo...
Muscat Hills is the pioneer of grass golf in Oman. Before the Paul Thomas design opened in 2009 the only golf available in the country was on sand. It is a hugely impress...

Tourists have been heading to Tuscany for centuries. The British, in particular, have always been fond of the region since the days of the Grand Tour when they came over...
Vipingo Ridge is by far the best appointed and maintained golf course in Kenya. Having just played the top three of the Kenyan top 100 the place is in superb condition an...
Wonderful. The definitive Scots links, and a true test of golf without shattering the morale of all but the most talented golfers. It is not too long, but tough, demandin...
