In 1901, a group of Portsmouth citizens established the Portsmouth Country Club. They bought a piece of farmland and hired Scottish-born Alex Findlay to build them a nine-hole golf course. The course was built and ready for play in five weeks; thirty-two years later nine more holes were added.
In the 1950s the U.S. Government decided to build a bomber base alongside the course, and the Club was forced to find a new location (which turned out to be less than a mile to the southwest, on the shoreline of Great Bay). The original course is now the Pease Golf Course, located next to the Portsmouth Intl Airport at Pease.
New Hampshire's 4th best course (Golf Digest, 2023/24).
Women’s (British) Open: the last women’s major championship of the season is hosted by Royal Porthcawl GC. It’s the first time this fabulous seaside links course has hosted the event (July 31-Aug 3).
Walker Cup: the 50th playing of this prestigious men’s amateur event sees the GB&I go head-to-head against the defending USA team at Cypress Point Club, California (Sept 6-7). After that, all eyes turn to Bethpage State Park on Long Island, NY, where the American and defending European professional teams engage in the 45th Ryder Cup (Sept 27-29).
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.
