Westerham Golf Club - 26th March
-
Encompassing established forestry and offering stunning views over the undulating Kent North Downs, Westerham is a superb par 72 course in excess of 6,000 yards and built to a high standard with USGA specification greens and irrigation, allowing play 12 months of the year. Tree lined fairways, strategically placed bunkers and three beautiful water features makes this a solid test for any standard of golfer and the exceptional design and maturity of the course has gained it a reputation as a ‘thinking man’s course’. Lasting memories of the course will likely revolve around the ‘eye of the storm’ 11th - a par 3 with daunting pine trees and bunkers protecting a small green or the closing hole which brings you back to a grandstand finish in front of the clubhouse, where the pressure is on to clear the devilishly positioned 18th lake.

Royal Cinque Ports - 24th July
-
Founded 130 years ago in 1892, its name derives from Deal's membership of an ancient group of trading towns granted special privileges by the medieval English monarchs, known as the Cinque Ports. The course runs along the coast of Sandwich Bay, on the same stretch of coastline as Royal St George's Golf Club and Prince's Golf Club, adjacent to the north. Royal Cinque Ports Golf Club in Kent is a regular feature within the UK and Ireland's Top 100 Golf Courses. This past host of The Open Championship has welcomed the world's very best golfers throughout its rich history. Extending out towards the Sandwich Bay, Deal is a traditional seaside course that takes advantage of the same magnificent turf as Royal St George's, and together these two Royal courses formulate a marvellous tour for lovers of seaside golf. With a front nine that is typically played into the wind and the back nine enjoying a following breeze, Cinque Ports is truly a game of two halves. Anyone playing to their handicap at this fantastically designed golf course is one that'll be sure to take the spoils on the par-72 that can have a SSS of 76 from the Championship tees.
