West Course
Since its opening in 1936, the West Course has been among Britain's most prestigious tournament courses. Harry Colt's magnificent heathland creation cuts through the mighty pine, oak and birch, and has hosted the HSBC World Matchplay since 1964, the PGA Championship since 1984, and the 1953 Ryder Cup matches. The course famously finishes with successive par-5s, where many shots can be gained or lost. In 2005 and 2007, the club's touring professional and Wentworth resident, Ernie Els, revised the West Course, reworking many bunkers and lengthening some holes - the course is now 7,308 yards - to ensure that in spite of technological developments, it still plays in the manner that Colt originally conceived.
Ernie Els added yet further changes in time for the 2010 BMW PGA Championship reducing the par to 71 and yardage to 7,261. With further elevation changes and cavernous bunkers the West Course is a fantastic test for all levels of golfers and given it's tournament history is a must play for anyone wanting to get inside the ropes and follow in the footsteps of their favourite players.
East Course
The East Course was Wentworth's first, having opened in 1924. Although it is considerably shorter than the West, at 6,201 yards, but the East is certainly not inferior. Also designed by Harry Colt, the East Course demands that golfers can shape their shots and be creative throughout. Distance is not a priority, but in order to challenge the par of 68, accurate driving and approach play is essential.
Edinburgh Course
The Edinburgh Course was designed by John Jacobs with consultation from Gary Player and Bernard Gallacher, and opened for play in 1990. Although it is the youngest of Wentworth's layouts, it has established a considerable reputation of its own as a championship course. Jacobs has intelligently drawn his inspiration from Harry Colt's work on the East and West, particularly following his principle of making the course challenging but also playable for everyone. The Edinburgh now plays host to the annual Wentworth Senior Masters, and has added much to the charm of one of England's greatest clubs.
A friendly match between British professionals and a group of visiting Americans in 1926 was overseen by a certain Samuel Ryder, and as such the Ryder Cup was conceived.
