Great River, CT (2001) / Jensen Beach GC, FL (1997; originally called Eagle Marsh GC) / Marco Simone, Italy (redesign with Dave Sampson of European Golf Design, 2020; original design by Jim Fazio) / PGA Natl, FL (Fazio course modifications, 2012; originally a Tom & George Fazio design called the Haig course) / Trump Natl Bedminster, NJ (Old course, with uncle Tom Fazio, 2004; New course, 2008).
Tom Fazio II (also known as Tommy) is a member of a distinguished family of course designers, which includes his father Jim, his uncle Tom and great-uncle George. While a student at Mississippi State University, Tommy had an opportunity to work on a golf course in Italy that his father Jim had designed. He also worked with his father overseeing the day to day construction of his father's design at Trump National Westchester in Briarcliff Manor, NY.
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.
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.
Here at Prince’s Golf Club you'll find 27 excellent holes of links golf. Just over the fence and sharing similar terrain is Royal St George’s; but Prince’s is far from overshadowed by its venerable neighbour. The three nine-hole loops at Prince's, laid out over gently undulating terrain, are sure to bring a smile of satisfaction to all lovers of links golf.
Stay&Play at Prince's: excellent onsite Lodge accommodation available
