2024/12/22

The search for a golf course in great condition in the middle of winter, where fairway mats aren't compulsory, takes us to this highly-rated south coast links.But if you can wait until summer, this is a great place to take advantage of cheaper twilight rates.https://www.haylinggolf.co.uk/https://www.thegolfpilgrim.com/post/haylingDo you agree with our review?

Port Fairy, Victoria, Australia

The Golf Pilgrim Top 100 ·

2024/12/12

Here's a course you might not even have heard of - unless you live in Australia. It's not in the World's Top 100 - but it is in the Top 50 in Australia.

Knole Park, Kent, England

The Golf Pilgrim Top 100 ·

2024/12/03

Deer me! Golfers at Knole Park must share the course with several hundred deer, as well as visitors to the National Trust's impressive stately home and grounds, once frequented by Henry VIII.But lovers of more recent history can walk in the footsteps of The Beatles, who filmed two music videos here! Some steep climbs provide splendid views of the Kent countryside, but a misplaced shot could leave you feeling like The Fool On The Hill....www.knoleparkgolfclub.co.ukwww.thegolfpilgri...

Strewth! What a pair of golf courses!Neil goes Down Under and finds that it's not just Australian beaches that have sand as far as the eye can see.

Seacroft, Lincolnshire, England

The Golf Pilgrim Top 100 ·

Who doesn't like a bargain? Seacroft is the cheapest Top 100 Course in England, with a round available for less than £40 in winter, and even in summer you can get a twilight round for less than £50.And being a links course, it's still very playable in winter, with a different set of seasonal tees to provide a fresh test.https://www.seacroft-golfclub.co.uk/www.thegolfpilgrim.comDo you agree with our review?

Chart Hills, Kent, England

The Golf Pilgrim Top 100 ·

2024/11/11

Is there a course in the UK with more sand? Let us know...but it certainly has the longest bunker we've ever seen, running more than two hundred yards along a fairway. We didn't count how many rakes it needed.....Chart Hills was designed by Sir Nick Faldo but after suffering from poor drainage has undergone major renovations in recent years, and has been rewarded with a place in England's Top 100.THIS EPISODE HAS NOW BEEN UPDATED TO INCLUDE AN INTERVIEW WITH CHART HILLS’ GENERAL MANAGER...

2024/10/20

The writer who created Sherlock Holmes played a major role in the creation of this heathland gem. Arthur Conan Doyle was a founder member and the club's first President, and lived nearby. As did legendary golf commentator Peter Alliss, who was also a big fan of Hindhead, which boasts some spectacular holes you will never forget.www.hindheadgolfclub.co.ukwww.thegolfpilgrim.com/post/hindheadDo you agree with our review?

2024/10/15

A celebratory episode, as Wentworth West, the home of the BMW PGA Championship, is the hundredth of the Top 100 Courses in England that Neil has managed to play.

Granville, Normandy. France

The Golf Pilgrim Top 100 ·

France's only links course, originally designed by Harry Colt, plays host to a Ryder Cup-style match between French and British journalists.

Ryder Cup Special!It may be 12 months away but we are all looking forward to Europe defending the trophy on American soil. Our special guest is Sky Sports golf reporter Jamie Weir, who managed to stir up the crowd at the last Ryder Cup in Italy with his Capgate story about Patrick Cantlay. Jamie visited Bethpage Black a couple of days before Neil played the course which is regarded as one of the toughest anywhere.But the good news is that anyone can play, and it's a bargain....so ...

2024/09/27

How do you get to play exclusive courses which are normally reserved for members and their guests? One solution is to pay to play in a charity golf day.

Winged Foot (West), New York, USA

The Golf Pilgrim Top 100 ·

2024/09/26

If Colin Montgomerie has nightmares, they are likely to feature the 18th at Winged Foot, where he had a great chance of finally landing an elusive major title in 2006. Yet Americans tend to remember Phil Mickelson blowing his chance to win that US Open on the same hole. More recently Bryson DeChambeau tamed the famous course, but there were no spectators to cheer him on because of Covid restrictons.So how would Neil cope?Do you agree with our review?

Some flags are RedSome flags are BlueWhy play one great courseWhen the Berkshire has two?You can tell we love these wonderful heathland courses.
