South Australia's Gem, Royal Adelaide Golf Club Golf Travel Show by Let's Play Thru

    • Golf

In our first "Club" episode of the mini-series, we start with the course consistently regarded as the number one course in South Australia - Royal Adelaide.

General Manager, Andrew Gay tells us about this stunning sand-based course in the western suburbs of Adelaide and only about 1km from the sea, "RA" as it is affectionately known has a strong and proud history dating back over 100 years. 

The course has hosted many big tournaments including the Men's and Women's Australian Opens but it is also equally important to its members.  The demanding but fair course has a strong Alistair McKenzie design hand, and it is a clever routing with several holes returning to the high point of the course.  It also plays typically "Aussie firm". 

If you want something unique - it doesn't get much more unique than having a metropolitan train line running through the property.  It literally passes about 20 yards from the clubhouse!  Royal Adelaide is a must visit on your South Australian itinerary.  You'll love it!
