A Golf Club Steeped In Historyroyal ascot Golf club was founded by local barrister f.J. Patton in 1887, and given royal status by Queen Victoria later that year. Many of her children learned to play golf at royal ascot and The Prince of Wales, later King edward Vii, was made patron of the club in 1901.

at first, royal ascot and ascot ladies golf clubs each had a 9-hole course on ascot heath in the middle of the racecourse. in 1895 the two clubs amalgamated and a new 18-hole course was designed by J.h. Taylor, then holder of the Open championship which he won five times. Joseph longhurst was appointed the first club professional in 1916.

in 1921 raGc hosted the inaugural british boys championship on the heath, and presented the r & a with a cup for an annual tournament which is still played for today. The championship was held on the heath again in 1922. That first year both henry cotton and his brother played, but henry was defeated in the first round. after the war the 1959 british ladies amateur championship was held at royal ascot and the event was won by elizabeth Price of england who had been runner up the previous year. The club celebrated its centenary in 1987 with a week of events opened by henry cotton.

When the ascot racecourse authority announced plans in the year 2000 for a major redevelopment of the racecourse it became necessary to look for a new location. This led to the club moving to a new course across Winkfield road on the site of the former ascot farm. raGc moved into its new clubhouse just before christmas 2004, while still playing on what remained of the old heath course. The new course opened for play in august 2005 (barry lane, a distinguished member and former ryder cup player, competed in the first match) and was formally opened by the club patron hrh Prince andrew, Duke of York, in May 2006.

The Course & Scorecard


The course at The royal ascot Golf club is a challenging 18-hole parkland course bounded by the mature woodland setting of Windsor forest, located on crown land which had once been a medieval deer park.

The attractive undulating mature course has been designed and built to the latest international golfing standards with the tees and greens meeting the exacting uSGa specifications, and provides golfers of all abilities with a challenging game of golf.

12 royal ascot Golf club

Hole By HoleOver the following pages you can learn about the trials and tribulations of each hole and pick up some play tips from our club professionals.

Hole 1 Minchin View 229 Yards / Par 3

from the medal tee a stiff opener, playing 229 yards but slightly downhill. Take one club more than you think. Dont ruin your round here, keep it in play, avoid rough to the right.

Hole 2 - Brick Kiln 535 Yards / Par 5

an acute dogleg right par 5 of over 500 yards, anything leaking right down the length of the hole will be hard to find in deep rough. Wide of this rough is Out of bounds. The central guarding front bunker is some 25 yards from the putting surface. The green is small, with some devilish pin locations.

Hole 3 - Thistle Carry 366 Yards / Par 4

a shortish par 4 that appears easy on the card, not so. requires a cleanly hit drive over a wide environmental hazard, the short route being down the right. a string of bunkers guard the fairway, but a large green does await.


Hole 4 - J H Taylor 320 Yards / Par 4

respite at last, a chance of a birdie. lay tee shot up before the replica Jh Taylor bunker, trust yardage to pin as bunker foreshortens the approach shot. Green has a lot of subtle borrows, usually turns more than you think.

Hole 5 - Brewers Pond 503 Yards / Par 5

a double dogleg par 5 to a heavily contoured triple tiered green. Drive towards the fairway bunker you can see from the tee. if you fancy taking the green on in two take plenty of club, trees and deep rough extend on your line to within 10 yards of the green. if laying up, play towards the left hand fairway cross bunker, this will open the green up for the third. Dont putt it off the green.

Hole 6 - Bluebell 178 Yards / Par 3

an aesthetically pleasing short hole that due to its angle plays longer than is shown on the card. a four leaf clover shape of green means you could be on the surface, having to putt from it. Play to the centre of the green every time, a par is very acceptable.

The gently undulating course has been designed and built to the latest

international golfing standards.

Hole By Hole Continued...Hole 7 - Water Meadow 398 Yards / Par 4

Plays the second hardest hole on the course. Dont be tempted to carry the water hazard from the tee, the landing area is minute. Take a club from the tee that you hit 200 yards and play it down the right side of the fairway, this will save having to carry the large oak on the left with your second.

approach shot is uphill to a green facing you, play a running shot in, aiming at right side of the green, it will feed towards the centre.

Hole 8 - Grey Poplar 139 Yards / Par 3

Shortest hole on course, but into the prevailing wind to a small green well protected with bunkers. correct clubbing will be required to secure par, green is very narrow. a far right pin position asks a lot of questions of the golfer.

Hole 9 - Ascot Farm 400 Yards / Par 4

from the tee looks like an open hole, but dont be fooled. The drive has to be correctly placed, keeping it left of the fairway bunker, right of the large tree on the left of the fairway and not so long as to go in the cross fairway water hazard that cannot be seen from the tee. Second will be with a medium to long iron to a large green, many subtle turns will be found on this putting surface.


Hole By Hole Continued...Hole 10 - Grays Copse 371 Yards / Par 4

a well struck drive to the left of the dead oak in the woods will leave the opportunity to set up a good back nine. Dont go long with the second shot, over the green is a deep ditch. a gentle start to the homeward journey.

Hole 11 - Old Waterfield 178 Yards / Par 3

a 190 yard par 3 that often plays with a cross wind. avoid the greenside bunkers if you can, they are the most penal on the course. Green deserves a deal of respect, heavily contoured.

Hole 12 - Henry Cotton 409 Yards / Par 4

Stroke index 1 and deservedly so. Dont ruin a hard fought for score at this point, play well within your limitations. Drive at the part of the fairway you can see, play second towards the green and if you have to use your short game to secure your par the green is receptive.


Hole 13 - Keepers 186 Yards / Par 3

a short hole that is deceptively long, rely on the given distance, it is correct. as you walk to the green you will see the dead ground that foreshortens this hole. The only one on the eighteen not to have a bunker, but watch for the dip before the green.

Hole 14 - Havells Field 430 Yards / Par 4

a dogleg right, with an environmental hazard tight to the right of the green. Drive must be played down the left side of fairway, avoid like the plague the oaks and deep rough on the right. approach shots can be run onto this par 4 green and will require a medium to long iron.

Hole 15 - F J Patton 478 Yards / Par 5

a par 5 that doglegs left and is reachable in two by the longer hitters. aim your drive to the left of the oak on the right side of fairway. Keep second shot straight to avoid penal rough to both left and right of fairway. a good chance to pick up a shot to par, the green is large and reasonably flat.

Hole By Hole Continued...Hole 16 - Woodend 425 Yards / Par 4

hang on to your hat, the start of a difficult finish. a tough, long and tight par 4 where the drive is everything. To secure your round ensure you get drive in play, if you have to play a four iron from the tee that should be your choice. The bunker that appears to guard the front right of the green is some 25 yards from the putting surface; dont be fooled into taking too short a club. use your stroke wisely on this hole.

Hole 17 - Furlong 218 Yards / Par 3

another tough par 3 of some 220 yards. bunkers guard both sides of the green and the putting surface is generously contoured. Play a low chasing shot at the right side of the green, slope will assist to feed it on to the green.

Hole 18 - Hungry Hill 531 Yards / Par 5

Decision time on hungry hill. a sweeping par 5 that doglegs right up the hill to a green that is located directly in front of the clubhouse. The scratch player may consider flying the first ditch at 265 yards, with his drive, leaving a 230 yard uphill shot to the green that is located just over a small lake. The sensible play is an opening shot to short of the ditch, ensuring you do not block yourself behind the oaks on the left. Keep the second up the left of the fairway to give a view of green and less water to carry with your third. a par will send you away happy to the 19th hole.
