Riddell's Bay Golf & Country Club

4-star: Above average course - well worth a visit.

Est. 1922

Riddell's Bay Golf & Country Club: COURSE CLOSED IN 2016, probably on a permanent basis. Check for current status before planning a visit.

[Original Where2Golf description]: With Riddell's Bay to the south and Bermuda's Great Sound to the north and west, Bermuda's oldest golf course sits on a peninsula of land surrounded on three sides by azure blue water. Although a par-70 and only 5,850 yards in length, this tree-lined and open parkland layout should not disappoint.

The Riddell's Bay layout includes many attractive features, stunning sea views and several excellent holes to enjoy. Plenty of golfing challenge, a well-crafted design and usually good upkeep all contribute to the appeal of this course.

Who's Who

Lottie Woad: 21-year-old Woad burst onto the professional scene in July, with wins in the Women’s Irish Open (as an amateur) and three weeks later in the Women’s Scottish Open (as a professional). She nearly picked-up a major championship, placing third in The Evian in the same month.

Pádraig Harrington: the ever-likeable Irishman added the (British) Senior Open Championship title to his stellar array of tournament successes. His win came on Sunningdale’s spectacular Old Course. Harrington had already bagged the U.S. Senior Open title in June this year.
