Royal St Georges Open Championship

The upcoming British Open Golf Championship will be hosted at Royal St Georges (RSG) in 2020. Indeed, RSG was Founded in 1887 and the course was designed by  Dr William Laidlaw Purves. RSG was intended to be known as the St Andrew’s in the South of England, however, golfers that have play both courses may argue that St George’s surpasses St Andrews! Interesting!

The Club occupies a unique place in the history of golf, for it was here in 1894, that the Open Championship was first played outside Scotland. Notably, RSG is ranked consistently ranked as the leading courses in the World to play.

Another interesting fact is that Royal St Georges has Hosted 14 Open Championships played at St George’s, more than any course outside of Scotland.
