Porters Park Golf Club: It is no surprise that Porters Park often gets an strong mention on many published lists of the capital's top golf venues. The central feature of this quintessentially English parkland course, is a stream that runs through the bottom of the course, providing a natural water hazard on at least seven of the holes.
Porters Park is laid out on wonderfully undulating terrain, with a requirement that several holes criss-cross the aforementioned meandering stream. The course also includes excellent (though not excessive) bunkering, a wonderful variety of trees, and many splendid long par-4s ... the 8th, 11th and 18th holes are just three among many gems.
Visitors welcome on weekdays; no outside visitors on weekends.
Must book in advance. Proof of handicap required.

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.
