AM                  Golf at Commonwealth Golf Club

Located on the Melbourne Sandbelt, just 25 minutes from the central business district, Commonwealth Golf Club is revered for its challenging driving holes and subtle sloping greens, which call for accurate shot making when playing from the fairway. Designed by club professional Sam Bennett, the first 12 holes opened early in 1921 with the full 18 in play by 1924. In 1926, Charles Lane, the Club Captain, travelled abroad to study golf architecture and met British designer Harry Colt, a former partner of Alister MacKenzie.

Located 40 minutes from Melbourne, toward the Mornington Peninsula, Peninsula Kingswood has recently relaunched after  radical redevelopment of its two golf courses (North and South) and onsite facilities. Australian Architects, Ogilvy Clayton Cocking Mead, were tasked with redeveloping the courses and the results are nothing short of spectacular. With wide-open fairways lined by natural shrubbery and quite possibly the best greens in the land, Peninsula Kingswood is destined to be a must play course for any avid golfer.
