Venue

Wharton Park Golf & Country Club

Worcestershire, England

Wharton Park Golf & Country Club is an 18-hole championship course designed by architect Howard Swan around a 43-acre Royal Forest near Bewdley, Worcestershire. The USGA Standard course plays to 6,402 yards (par 71) from the white tees, with multiple tee options including yellow (6,023 yards) and red (5,351 yards). The layout offers commanding views across Worcestershire from numerous holes. The course presents a significant challenge, with tight fairways where even 15-yard deviations result in bogeys among trees and water hazards. Notable par 3s include the elevated 8th, the tree-framed 3rd, the downhill 10th, and the 162-yard 15th over a bushland canyon. The par 5s feature expansive fairways, with the signature 9th hole stretching 587 yards from the back tees. The picturesque 16th requires precise course management, demanding an accurate tee shot to an elevated fairway followed by a 170-yard shot over a lake to reach the green. Water features prominently throughout, challenging golfers at all levels while maintaining aesthetic appeal across the scenic landscape.
