Golf Vacations England – Royal St Georges
- yds – Par 70
Dr Laidlaw Purves, of the Royal Wimbledon Golf Club, designed and established the golf club in 1887.
The Club was intended to serve the needs of London golfers who were only able to play their golf on often crowded and unkempt courses in the city area. Named St. George’s, it was to become the Southern England rival of Scotland’s St. Andrew’s. Royal status was bestowed on the Club by the King in May 1902. The Links provides a severe test for even the greatest of golfers, with Irelands Darren Clarke carding a 5 under par for the 72 holes to win the 2011 Open.
