Five Forts
Five Forts Golf Club (formerly known as the St George's Golf Club): this short but immensely scenic par-62 course was laid out by the great Robert Trent Jones Snr. After a lengthy period of closure starting in 2008, the course was reborn and relaunched as Five Forts in 2021.
Although a tad short at 4,436 yards from the tips, Five Forts offers a scenic and challenging golf course with lush green expanses and breathtaking ocean views. With five historic forts on St George's Island, the signature hole plays down to the seashore and in the direction of Fort St Catherine, the largest fort in Bermuda.

Sony Open in Hawaii: played at Waialae Country Club near Honolulu, the Sony Open takes over the spotlight from The Sentry as the PGA Tour’s calendar-year opening event (Jan 15-18). The Sentry (not being played in 2026) was formerly known as the Tournament of Champions, with a field typically restricted to golfers who won a PGA Tour event in the previous calendar year.
Dubai Desert Classic: the DP World Tour’s first Rolex Series event of 2026, is contested for the 37th time (Jan 22-25).

Our visit last month included two rounds at Golf de Chantilly, one of France’s most prestigious clubs.
It offers two superb layouts: Le Vineuil, a five-star championship course with a rich history, and Longères, an excellent four-star course that provides a strong and enjoyable test.
The wider Paris region offers plenty more. Courses such as Fontainebleau, Golf de Saint-Germain, and several other top-rated layouts make this area one of Europe’s most rewarding golf destinations, offering a mix of woodland, heathland, and parkland designs.
