The Royal St George's Golf Club


Royal St George's is one of the historic venues, an Open course, amid a stretch of rich Kent coastal golfing land, full of atmosphere and tradition without being stuffy. Sandhills, pot bunkers, lightning, invariably true and large greens and the wind create the challenge for the land is essentially flat. The wind is the course’s main defence. There are blind shots from tees and fairways so aim straight and trust the direction markers and yardage book. Almost 6,700 yards, par 70, only four Open winners managed to be under par for 72 holes. Established by Dr Laidlaw Purves in 1887 and called St. George's as the English rival to Scotland's St. Andrew's.
