203 - Course Diaries: Worcestershire Golf Club
Manage episode 377949525 series 2652451
We sit down with friend GCA guru and member of The Worcestershire - David Thomas - to hear more about the history of the oldest club in our own county.
Golf goes all the way back in Malvern to the 1870’s and a young H.S. Colt lived here from the age of 2, meaning this is where it all began for the young man who would go on to become one of the most influential course architect in history.
Mackenzie would later become the course architect when the club moved site in the 1920’s, and Colt despite being a member of the club for several decades was unsuccessful in being appointed by the club. Fascinating chapter of history that little is spoken about.
For overseas listeners, much has been made of the correct pronounciation. Worcestershire is pronounced;
‘Wu-stuh-shuh’
