God For King Charles, England And St George’s Hill GC
St George's Hill Golf Club的点评
点评:Wow, what a place this is! Set in probably one of THE most affluent estates in the UK and over a thousand odd acres this place must be seen to be believed. As
soon as approached via a huge private security and driveway you could smell the money. Set amongst rolling heath land and mature trees the 3 x 9’s are a
delight to play. The clubhouse is stunning, full of history and the locker room had all number of free toiletries a man could need including sun cream, mouth wash, deodorant and much more. The practice range was a short drive away from the course which I personally don’t like and on this occasion didn’t try.
We played the red and blue course, however be warned come inappropriately dressed and you’ll find yourself having to purchase a pair of white socks from the pro shop, as one of our party did. I suppose he can look back and laugh that he has a nice memento (socks with SGH logo) but I do find this sort of thing in 2025 a tad sad I’m all for tradition and would be first to ensure dress standard’s are kept high BUT having to ensure your socks are white if short is in a word ridiculous, more to the point knee length socks can be any colour of the rainbow, go figure? That aside the starter was very friendly and set us on our way with one of the most beautiful first holes I’ve ever played. The tee shot can be daunting as you need a good drive up a sweeping steep fairway, with bunkers and tall trees left and right. Add to this a fair number of other golfers hanging around to witness that often terrifying (well for us amateur golfers) moment off the first. There were some stunning holes and if I’m being super lucky I’d say a couple of meh holes in particular the 11th on Blue Course, a short par 3 with trouble all round. Definitely worth a visit. I’d also say the club sandwich is right up there with the best I’ve tried.
翻译:哇,这地方真是太棒了!它坐落在英国最富裕的庄园之一,占地超过一千英亩,必须亲眼目睹才能相信。
穿过巨大的私人保安和车道,你就能闻到金钱的气息。在起伏的荒地和茂密的树木之间,3x9的球场
是打球的乐趣。会所令人叹为观止,充满历史感,更衣室里有男士所需的各种免费洗漱用品,包括防晒霜、漱口水、除臭剂等等。练习场离球场只有很短的车程,我个人不太喜欢,所以这次没有去尝试。
我们打的是红蓝球场,但要注意,如果穿着不当,你可能需要像我们一行人中的一个人一样,从专业商店买一双白袜子。我想他回首往事时一定会笑着说自己有一件很棒的纪念品(印有 SGH 标志的袜子),但我真的觉得 2025 年发生这种事有点可悲。我完全拥护传统,并会首先确保着装标准保持高水平。但如果袜子短了就必须确保袜子是白色的,这太荒谬了,更确切地说,及膝袜可以是彩虹中的任何颜色,想想看?撇开这些不谈,发球员非常友好,为我们打出了我打过的最漂亮的第一洞之一。开球可能会令人望而生畏,因为你需要在陡峭的球道上开球,球道两旁都是沙坑和高大的树木。此外,还有相当多的高尔夫球手在附近徘徊,见证那常常令人恐惧(对我们这些业余高尔夫球手来说)的第一洞时刻。有些洞非常棒,如果我超级幸运的话,我会说有几个洞很糟糕,特别是蓝球场的第 11 洞,这是一个短的三杆洞,到处都是麻烦。绝对值得一去。我还想说,他们的俱乐部三明治是我吃过最好吃的。
