Chart Hills, Kent, England 49:38

6d ago49:38

49:38

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 h…

West Hill, Surrey, England 41:05

13d ago41:05

41:05

Back to Surrey for the third of the famous three Ws. In recent years it has replaced thousands of trees with an abundance of heather. And we delve into West Hill's fascinating history, which has a touch of the macabre. www.westhillgc.co.uk www.thegolfpilgrim.com/post/west-hill Do you agree with our review? Text us your opinion!…

Hindhead, Surrey, England 32:17

28d ago32:17

32:17

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.hindheadgolfclu…

Wentworth (West), Surrey, England 44:07

1M ago44:07

44:07

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. So we have cameo appearances from BBC cricket oommentator Jonathan Agnew (who's seen hundreds of centuries in his career, but none that have taken four years to complete.) Plus former Ryde…

Granville, Normandy. France 37:01

1M ago37:01

37:01

France's only links course, originally designed by Harry Colt, plays host to a Ryder Cup-style match between French and British journalists. Would Neil and Ian write themselves into Wryter Cup history? Sadly, if we said yes, it would be fake news.... www.golfdegranville.com www.thegolfpilgrim.com/post/granville-links Do you agree with our review? T…

42:18

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 …

Somerset Hills, New Jersey, USA 38:01

2M ago38:01

38:01

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. Every year, Somerst Hills, a quirky but highly regarded Tillinghast creation, opens its doors to raise funds for a worthwhile cause. www.somersetcc.org www.thegolfpilgrim.com/post/somerset-hills Do…

Winged Foot (West), New York, USA 33:54

2M ago33:54

33:54

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 spec…

Baltusrol (Lower) New Jersey, USA 31:08

31:08

The Golf Pilgrim heads to the USA! Baltusrol, 25 miles west of Manhattan has hosted 18 major championships, including victories by Jack Nicklaus and Phil Mickelson.

The Berkshire (Red and Blue), Berkshire, England 35:59

2M ago35:59

35:59

Some flags are Red Some flags are Blue Why play one great course When the Berkshire has two? You can tell we love these wonderful heathland courses. And with so many Surrey gems in the vicinty, we ask why more tourists don't come to the west of London for golfing holidays, rather than head for Scotland and Ireland. www.theberkshire.co.uk www.thegol…

Little Aston, West Midlands, England 34:12

2M ago34:12

What's great about Little Aston? Well, apart from a magnificent course and possibly the best putting green anywhere, they make a point of welcoming visitors with a small gift. www.littleastongolf.co.uk www.thegolfpilgrim.com/post/little-aston Do you agree with our review?

JCB, Staffordshire, England 29:24

3M ago29:24

29:24

If you build it, who will come? The big yellow diggers have transformed this part of Staffordshire into the JCB owner’s fields of dreams. It’s now hosting LIV events, so it’s good enough for the professionals. But is it somewhere mid-handicappers will enjoy? www.jcbgolfandcountryclub.com www.thegolfpilgrim.com/post/__jcb Do you agree with our revie…

Portstewart, County Londonderry, Northern Ireland 35:08

3M ago35:08

35:08

Are there more dramatic opening holes in the UK and Ireland? The scenery and the giant dunes help make Portstewart's front 9 among the best links courses anywhere. But is it a game of two halves? Well, the club are improving holes on the back 9 to keep the thrills coming. And even in a three club wind, Ian manages a decent round. www.portstewartgc.…

Royal Portrush, County Antrim, Northern Ireland 53:55

53:55

A special episode on the fabulous Dunluce Championship Links which hosted The Open in 2019, and will again in 2025. With a special guest appearance from actor James Nesbitt who is a Royal Portrush member and lives in the town.

Fulford, Yorkshire, England 32:03

3M ago32:03

32:03

The course which Bernhard Langer made famous - by climbing a tree to play a shot. And he wasn't the only top player to leave his mark on this famous Yorkshire course. www.fulfordgolfclub.co.uk www.thegolfpilgrim.com/post/fulford Do you agree with our review?

Ashridge, Hertfordshire, England 34:37

4M ago34:37

34:37

Ashridge is a great example of how your enjoyment of a course can depend on whether it's set up for recreational golfers or top amateurs. When we played a couple of years ago on the eve of a high-level competition, the rough was so punishing, the round became an ordeal. But on our latest visit, Ashridge was a delight. Did that mean it was easy? Of …

Woodbridge, Suffolk, England 29:47

4M ago29:47

29:47

Woodbridge is a hidden heathland gem within the beautiful Suffolk countryside. Its quirky holes spurred Neil on to believing he would manage a stellar round but there was a sting in its tail - and a recently discovered Second World War look-out. woodbridge.intelligentgolf.co.uk www.thegolfpilgrim.com/post/woodbridge Do you agree with our review?

Parkstone, Dorset, England 28:14

Mrs W collects the champagne again as Neil imagines Parkstone's former pro and famous BBC commentator Peter Alliss having a right good giggle at his attempts to ascend its dramatic false fronts. Meanwhile, Ian and Neil discuss how nature conversation has been critical to making this one of the England's most picturesque courses. www.parkstonegolfcl…

East Devon, Devon, England 33:57

Remedy Oak, Dorset, England 27:29

4M ago27:29

27:29

Remedy Oak may only be twenty years old, but ancient woodland and a 16th century monarch help to make it feel a lot more mature. And with lots of water to swallow errant shots, a member's advice is to give your Pro V1s a rest and use cheaper balls! www.remedyoak.com www.thegolfpilgrim.com/post/remedy-oak Do you agree with our review?

Centurion, Hertfordshire, England 34:12

5M ago34:12

34:12

Remember the golf course that saw the start of the LIV revolution, with black London taxis ferrying the players to each hole for a shotgun start? After two years, the LIV circus has moved on - to JCB in Staffordshire, but Centurion still hosts an Aramco event for the top female players. It's a private club, only members and their guests can play - …

Tandridge, Surrey, England 36:26

5M ago36:26

36:26

We're all looking for hidden gems to play....Tandridge certainly isn't hidden, but it is a gem that you might not know much about. Surrey is blessed with so many great heathland courses, but this is a parkland track that took our breath away with some dramatic holes. In it's centenary year, has it ever looked better? Well...that's a subject for deb…

Walton Heath Old & New, Surrey, England 44:23

5M ago44:23

44:23

Two great courses side by side, and a club that has had four prime ministers and a King among its members. More recently it's hosted a Ryder Cup and tournaments featuring some of the best male and female. players in the world. Our special guest is Tom McKibbin, who talks about how his two rounds at Walton Heath earned him a place in his first major…

Lofoten Links, Norway 45:16

5M ago45:16

45:16

We're back....after a bit of a break while Neil travels to a golf course far, far away. Lofoten Links may be like no other course on earth. It's in northern Norway, and because it's in the Arctic Circle, the sun never sets in the summer months. So if you've ever wanted to play golf 24 hours a day, this is the course for you. Bring plenty of balls a…

Prestwick, Ayrshire, Scotland. 32:55

5M ago32:55

32:55

In sport, everyone knows how important it is to be First. Prestwick's fame is largely based on being the first venue of the Open Championship. That contest, over the original 12 holes, was won by Willie Park. Prestwick hosted the Open a total of 24 times, but it hasn't staged golf's oldest and most famous competition since 1925. So, a century later…

Turnberry, Ayrshire, Scotland 45:31

6M ago45:31

45:31

NOW UPDATED! One of the world's greatest golf courses, owned by one of the world's most controversial men. Is it possible to discuss Turnberry without mentioning Trump? Of course not. One is universally praised; the other divides opinion like no man on earth. Would Turnberry be so good without Donald Trump's involvement? Would it stand a better cha…

Silloth on Solway, Cumbria, England 32:56

6M ago32:56

32:56

"I loved the place so much I bought it." Well not quite...but Neil and his wife played one round at Silloth on Solway and immediately applied for membership. This is a hidden gem and probably the best value top 100 course in the UK, despite rating higher than many illustrious names in the list of great British courses. It can be a trek to get there…

Sunningdale New, Berkshire, England 27:29

6M ago27:29

27:29

We're back at England's premier two-course club to play Sunningdale New - which is now more than a hundred years old. It's not quite as highly rated as the Old - but they're both in the Top 100 in the world! It's a tough round for Neil, but even more painful for his playing partner... www.sunningdalegolfclub.co.uk www.thegolfpilgrim.com/post/sunnin…

Moor Park, Hertfordshire, England 27:45

6M ago27:45

27:45

Moor Park may have one of the grandest clubhouses in the UK, but was Neil's driving as majestic as the surroundings? Spoiler alert...no. This is a club which is steeped in history. And this is certainly the only episode where Capability Brown and Jane Austen will get a mention. Plus Ian confesses to locker room pilfering! www.moorparkgc.co.uk www.t…

Woking, Surrey, England 38:40

6M ago38:40

38:40

Woking - the first of the famous 3 Surrey Ws to be built and the second we've reviewed in recent weeks. It's a fantastic course to play, but Woking has also written a significant chapter in golf history. When the club introduced the first fairway bunkers on an inland course, it revolutionised golf architecture around the world. It also has some of …

North Hants, Hampshire, England 27:29

6M ago27:29

27:29

The course where US Open champion and Ryder Cup hero Justin Rose mastered the game. Don't get lost on the way....it's North Hants, not Northants! It's about to undergo major renovation work which should help it retain its place in England's Top 100. Did Neil succeed in nailing his first ever hole in one? www.northhantsgolf.co.uk www.thegolfpilgrim.…

Rosapenna, County Donegal, Ireland. Part 2: St Patrick's Links 39:08

6M ago39:08

39:08

Is this is the most spectacular course we've ever played? St Patrick's Links opened only three years ago, but a layout some have hailed as Tom Doak's masterpiece has already leapt into the top 50 in the world! We played it on a beautiful day when the course had surely never looked better. The scenery takes your breath away. But how did St Pat's pla…

Woburn (Duchess), Bedfordshire, England 28:29

6M ago28:29

28:29

The Duchess isn't rated as highly as the Duke's or Marquess courses, but all three benefit from a majestic setting at Woburn, and members there reckon it deserves higher praise. Ian and Neil are guided around the course by David Hay, son of Alex - Woburn's first Director of Golf who became known to millions as a BBC commentator. https://www.thegolf…

What does Tim Henman have in common with James Bond? Does the former tennis player have a licence to kill? Or is 007 partial to a game of mixed doubles? Well, neither, actually. Bond author Ian Fleming was a member of Huntercombe Golf Club, and Henman regularly wins competitions at his home club. Ian and Neil reflect on not one but two rounds at th…

In the coming months Ian and Neil will play on all three of Surrey's famous 3 Ws. Woking, West Hill and Worplesdon. Like so many courses this winter, W also stands for Wet.
