Kingston Heath Golf Club

Kingston Heath is one of the Golf Clubs of the world famous Melbourne Sandbelt and has hosted numerous national championships including nine Australian Opens. The Club is the host of the 2009 Australian Masters. The course is currently ranked *27 in the world and *11 outside of the United States and is regarded by many, including some of the world's best golfers, as one of Australia's finest golf courses. "We play a lot of unbelievable courses on the PGA Tour, but Kingston Heath would be far and away the best of the regular tournament courses - that's not including the Majors. The US Open has stunning courses, but overall, most of the American courses are nowhere near as good as Kingston Heath". Geoff Ogilvy 'Kingston Heath is the pick of the Melbourne Sandbelt courses and I haven't seen anything better around the world". Peter Senior Kingston Heath is one of the smallest courses of world renown. The difficulty of the course is centred around its bunkering, which is visually stunning. It is full of all the strategic interest golfers expect of a fine course. A hugely long course at over 6800 yards when it opened, it is now on the short side of what is regarded as 'championship' length but its genius is that it can still defend itself against the finest players. More importantly, it is a course to constantly stimulate and challenge those who play it with regularity.
