Sudden Valley
Sudden Valley Golf & Country Club is home to a good quality Ted Robinson-designed golf course, popular with local golfers. The layout's front-nine loop plays through relatively open and flat terrain, with the par-4 5th bringing you to the shoreline of Lake Whatcom. The green of this gently doglegging hole juts out into the lake. Fairway landing areas are relatively generous and the greens are large.
By contrast, the back-nine is considerably more challenging and undulating. This "inward" loop follows a ridge uphill with narrow evergreen-fringed fairways and smaller greens. Finesse and accuracy are more in demand on this closing stretch. Spread through the course you'll find water hazards threatening on fourteen of the eighteen holes and bunkers also liberally sprinkled around the greens and along some fairways.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.

Good
Lake Whatcom, which you'll see from many parts of the course, is a good size lake measuring 10 miles long by a mile wide. It is used as the drinking water reservoir for the nearby city of Bellingham. Connecting the lake to Bellingham Bay is Whatcom Creek, which unobtrusively meanders its way through the Bellingham.

The Masters: The 88th Masters Tournament at Augusta National sees LIV golfer Jon Rahm defend his title against the world’s best. Pressing hard will be world No.1 and 2022 champion Scottie Scheffler and world No.2 Rory McIlroy (April 11-14).
Chevron Championship: the women’s major championship season gets underway for the second year at its new Carlton Woods home outside Houston, Texas. World No.2 Lilia Vu defends (April 18-21).
Nelly Korda: records a perfect start to 2024 with four wins out of her last four appearances on the LPGA Tour, a feat last achieved by Lorena Ochoa in 2008. Korda's win at the T-Mobile Match Play brought up her 12th LPGA Tour victory.
Scottie Scheffler: narrowly missed out on matching Nelly Korda’s three-in-three, when he placed second at the Houston Open. This followed back-to-back wins at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and The Players. Like Korda, he remains comfortably ahead in the official world golf rankings.
Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.
Jim Fazio's original layout was much changed to create a modern Ryder Cup course ... now one of the Eternal City's (and Italy's) most revered.
