About Royal Cinque Ports Golf Club

 

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 Poerts. The course runs along the coast of Sandwich Bay on the same stretch of coastline as Royal St George's and Prince's/

Royal Cinque Ports hosted The Open Championship in 1909 and 1920 Two more were scheduled for 1938 and 1949 but both were relocated when abnormally high tides inundated the course; both were held at nearby Royal St George's. Consequently, the club was removed from the Open Championship rota, but remains a final qualifying course (most recently in 2017). It has also continued to host various other tournaments including The Amateur Championship (1923, 1982, 2013) and, since 1925, it has hosted the Public Schools Championship every year.
