Golf Course Information
An Alister MacKenzie original and a cornerstone of English golf, Moortown is etched into the heather-strewn landscape of West Yorkshire. Its heathland DNA is immediately evident—firm, sandy turf underfoot, and fast-running fairways bordered by gorse, bracken, and mature woodland. MacKenzie’s influence is unmistakable in the bold bunkering, intelligent green complexes, and variety of shot demands. From the opening tee shot to the final putt, Moortown challenges the golfer to think creatively and execute precisely.
Its tournament pedigree is unparalleled: host of the 1929 Ryder Cup—the first ever held on British soil—and numerous elite amateur championships, including the Brabazon and English Amateur. This is a course where history lingers in the air and every round feels like a walk through golf’s golden age, reborn with modern relevance.
