GOLF CLUB
The Royal Liverpool Golf Club links at Hoylake can be beautiful, uplifting, challenging, and even daunting when the wind blows and the summer rough is deep. The course was created to be a demanding test of golf and remains so today. Being one of the oldest of all the English seaside clubs, it lies at the very heart of the history and development of the game in Great Britain.
WALLASEY GOLF CLUB
Tom Morris senior of St Andrews, four times Open champion, laid out the links. An 1893 newspaper comment that “…the greens were in excellent condition…” has been repeated continuously ever since. Course improvements were made in 1901 by Alex ‘Sandy’ Herd (Open Champion 1902) and in 1913 by Harold Hilton (four times Amateur Champion and twice Open Champion).
