Royal St George's Golf Club
Royal St George's Golf Club, nestled in the dunes of the magnificent Kent coast, is a course of extraordinary natural beauty that has been regarded as one of the best in Britain and the world since its inception in 1887.
Dramatic undulations, thick, heavy rough, upturned saucer-shaped greens, and fiendish pot bunkers all add to the challenge, but the routing of the holes at Sandwich may present the golfer with the most difficult quandary. Unlike many classic links courses, which are designed with a "9 out and 9 back" layout, the holes at Royal St George's point in every direction, requiring the golfer to be continuously on their toes, judging the wind's direction and speed. Follow in the footsteps of previous Open Champions Collin Morikawa, Sandy Lyle, Greg Norman, and Darren Clarke to see if you're up to the challenge.
