I like playing different golf courses and holidaying in fabulous locations around the world playing the game. I also enjoy reviewing golf courses that I have played and comparing my reflections with others. My life target is to play 1000 separate golf courses, and I hope to reach 750 in 2022. I use the ‘Top 100 Golf Courses’ website as my guide so that I only play at good quality locations.
My handicap is 14 at Hankley Common, Surrey, UK and I also have membership rights at Gleneagles in Scotland and Simola in South Africa.
‘There is an old-fashioned air about the golf at Wimbledon’. So wrote Bernard Darwin back in 1910, but to the course’s great credit it has 112 years later been tastefully...
It was a question of third time lucky for me. The first time I played the Ailsa at Turnberry over 25 years ago it was wet and windy, the second time on New Year’s Day in...
Gleneagles is a very special place and a perfect golfing location and it’s selection for both Ryder and Solheim Cup in the last 10 years was both logical and inspired. Am...

I have played the Old Course at San Roque about ten times in its 30 year history and was looking forward to seeing its new look following a significant makeover in 2020 a...
We last played the New Course at San Roque about 5 years ago, loved the layout and felt that it was an ideal second course on the Estate to the well known Old Course.But...
A feature of some new golf courses in the last 30 years, is that the designer has been asked to construct a course in unfriendly and yet awe-inspiring locations, mainly o...
I have been spending British winters in the Western Cape of South Africa since 2009 with a house on the Simola Golf Estate for that time, so the golf course, it’s strengt...
Knysna’s golf course has been in existence well before the Garden Route became a golfers’ haven and ‘resort’ courses were the norm. It’s traditional Golf Club has a large...
Surprisingly, I am the first person to write a review on Erinvale, a well-established golf course near to Cape Town that has hosted a number of top professional tournamen...
Pezula is an incredibly scenic golf course on the southernmost cliffs of the African continent with huge elevation changes and some remarkable golfing challenges. And yet...
Oubaai is Ernie Els first solo golf course design and one very close to his family home, as can be seen by the number of Els family members displayed on the Club’s honour...
‘Old’ George is a throwback to many typical English parkland courses built in the early part of the 20th Century. George Golf Club was established in1906, but golf has on...
Ile aux Cerfs is a quite magical island, just off the coast of Mauritius, that is little larger than 1 square kilometre (100 hectares) and was formerly a sugar plantation...
Ernie Els has designed Anahita over a large expanse of gently undulating land adjoining the Indian Ocean. The course is in many ways similar to his first solo design at O...
The Links course at Belle Mare Plage complements the older Legend at the same tropical location to make an ideal two-course venue for the holiday golfer, who is staying i...
We played the Legends Course on a very windy day just hours before the arrival of Cyclone Batsirai. Due to the fact that a former reporter had suggested we play off more...
