‘’I don’t like the glamour, I just like the game’’, Ben Hogan

There’s a lot to adore about England’s highest 18-hole course – sub-6,000 yards, sheep roaming, blind shots and grass bunkers galore.

But it’s perhaps the greens at @KingtonGolfClub that are its best feature. A wonderful set of complexes that are absolutely elevated for their lack of bunkers, not held back.

Impossible not to have fun playing into the 5th green at St Patrick’s.

A huge surface sloping in from the right, where a devil’s-a**hole-style bunker looms. With a friendly pin you could see a lot of hole-in-ones here.
