Royal Wimbledon Golf Club

Royal Wimbledon Golf Club is now more than 125 years old and one of those hidden gems that succeeded in remaining what it set out to be a very private Club.

Just nine miles from London's Piccadilly, newcomers are much taken with the delightful peaceful atmosphere as they walk fairways lined with mature oak and chestnut trees, fine silver birch, gorse that blazes yellow in season, heather and wild life to delight the most passionate naturalist.

Willie Park designed and constructed the present course in 1907 and further changes were completed in 1924 by Harry S. Colt a renowned golf architect who was also a member of the Club. The course measures 6348 yards with a Standard Scratch of 70. Every hole requires a well placed, sometimes long drive, to give the opportunity of a par or better. The short holes are testing and often club very differently to their measured length. Greens are fast but true.
