“Details the author’s selection of thirty-three premier English
Golf Clubs. It is comprehensive, useful, well illustrated and an
up-to-date reference book.” —West Sussex Golf Club Every golf
course around the world has one thing in common—they are all unique.
Golf provides a different experience wherever you go. No two courses
are ever the same and each has their own captivating story to tell.
Blessed with a rich and varied landscape, England has a prolific
collection of coastal links and inland courses created by some of
golf’s most cherished craftsmen; Sunningdale (Park Jr. & Colt),
Walton Heath (Fowler), St Enodoc (Braid), Alwoodley and Moortown
(MacKenzie) to name just a few. This guide offers a golfer everything
they would require to enjoy a great round of golf at the best courses
England has to offer. All the information you need is right here—par
scores, yardage, green-fee price indicators, booking procedure,
history of each club and how best to play the course. England is where
golf’s greatest artists have gifted us moments to treasure for
eternity. A young Ballesteros lifting the claret jug at Royal Lytham &
St Annes, Bobby Jones storming to victory at Hoylake on his way to the
grand slam, and who can ever forget Nicklaus and Jacklin bringing
their titanic Ryder Cup battle to a close with a famous handshake at
Royal Birkdale. Sharing a border with its spiritual home, England is
undoubtedly golf’s exquisite front garden. “What really makes the
book come alive is the amount of research Michael has clearly put in.
Only the most ardent golf historian wouldn’t find out something
new.” —UKGolfGuy.com
