First opened in 1907 it was widely regarded as England's longest course at the time at over 7000 yards. Princes was then requisitioned by the military and severely damaged during the Second World War. In the 1950s the course was redesigned to incorporate 27 holes with 3 Championship nines.
Princes was host to The Open Championship in 1932, won by Gene Sarazen where he famously debuted his newly invented 'sand iron.' The course now has 3 distinct nines, all of which start and end at the clubhouse, offering a mix of classic and modern links golf challenges.
Princes now hosts Final Open Qualifying, and in 2030 will be the venue for the 53rd Walker Cup between Great Britain & Ireland and the United States. Regularly ranked in England's top 30 courses.
