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...

In a way was almost a shame that we played Almouj first because whatever comes after it in Muscat could well be a disappointment as this place is absolutely top drawer. T...

Robert Trent Jones must be spinning in his grave with what has happened at Quinta da Marinha. It was never the best in the Lisbon region but a tricky, tight holiday track...

Having had a late night in Palma the three of us we were in no hurry to get onto the East Course at Son Antem, having been startled by the sorry state of the West Course...

This is a confusing place. Staying at the huge Son Antem hotel it is hard to credit that a resort hotel does not own the resort golf club on its doorstep. But that is the...

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...
