Worcester Golf
Course: Worcester, Western Cape, South
Africa: The Worcester Golf Club is situated at the start of
the Western Cape’s Klein Karoo, approximately 50 minutes from Cape Town en
route to Oudtshoorn and the Garden Route.
The course was designed by Peter Matkovich, at that time in partnership
with Gary Player. The championship course is situated in the foothills of
the Brandwacht Mountains with a panoramic view of Worcester and the Breede
River Valley. Gary has described the site as one of the finest in the
world. The rugged natural beauty of the Karoo has been enhanced by
indigenous trees, dams and watercourses. A combination of biosphere,
parklands and links, Worcester is a challenging course, which rewards
daring shots but can severely punish bad ones. The large bent grass greens
were built and are maintained to the highest standards. Accurately placed
aloes and boulders act as markers measuring the distances to the greens.
Club regulations: Appropriate golf attire is required. No
handicap is required unless you are entering a competition. Members only
on Wednesday afternoons. |
