Hallamshire Golf Club, located in Sandygate just outside the city of Sheffield, is another in England's excellent lineage of heathland golf courses designed by the great Harry Colt. Characterised by large pockets of heather, gorse and bilberries, the undulating heather-clad layout sits on acidic, peaty soil, which produces excellently conditioned fairways, as well as firm, true greens.
This tree-lined and open heathland layout should not disappoint, with many attractive features and several excellent holes to enjoy. Plenty of golfing challenge and good upkeep contribute to the appeal of this well-crafted design. One to include on your play list if you are in the area.
Visitors welcome on weekdays; more restricted at weekends.
Must book in advance. Maximum handicap: men 28, women 36.
Credit cards accepted. Contact club for full details, discounts, packages, etc. [Last updated: 2018].

Hallamshire has been home to several famous names in the golfing world. It was here that John Jacobs and Pete Cowen both started their careers as assistant professionals. Famous Hallamshire ladies include Alison Nicholas (1997 US Women's Open Champion) and Mary Everard (four-time Curtis Cup player); both are still members. So too is the BBC presenter Dan Walker, as well as Matt Fitzpatrick, multiple European Tour winner and 2016 Ryder Cup player.
Tournament of Champions: the PGA Tour’s calendar-year starts, as it has done since 1999, with this iconic event in Hawaii. The field is drawn from players who won a PGA Tour event in 2022, or were amongst the top 30 in last year’s FedEx Cup final standings (Jan 6-9).

Barry Lane: the golfing world was also saddened by the passing of Barry Lane, one of the European Tour and European Senior Tours most popular players. Enjoying success on both Tours, Lane was know for his excellent ball-striking and amiable personality.
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.
