The Golf Pilgrim Top 100
This is the essential podcast for those planning to play the world's top golf courses.
We now have dozens of reviews from Top 100 courses in the UK, Ireland, France, Spain, Italy, Scandinavia, the USA and Australia…and the library is building every week. All the episodes are stand alone - you don't have to listen to them in any particular order.
In 2020 Neil White began a challenge to play all of the world's top courses. You can read his reviews at www.thegolfpilgrim.com. Now you can listen to his reviews, as he gives an honest account of the courses, the practice facilities, and the food available. Is it value for money? Will you be made to feel welcome as a visitor?
There are champagne and comedy moments to discuss, in the company of his fellow journalist and pal Ian Woods. Ian's a former Sky News and BBC Correspondent, who's now working for ITV. He's played a lot of great courses too, and is a former Captain of the Press Golfing Society.
The Golf Pilgrim Top 100
West Lancs, Lancashire, England
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Formed in 1873, this is one of the oldest clubs in England, but it is as relevant to the history of golf as it was when it was founded.
Its close relationship with Royal Liverpool means that West Lancs will jointly stage the Amateur Championship with Hoylake in 2026. And it will also continue to host the Final Open Qualifying for the top pros looking for a last-minute ticket to Royal Birkdale.
But even if you are neither a top amateur nor professional, you will be thrilled by the challenge and the condition of the West Lancashire course, which runs alongside the Mersey Estuary, and is one of the gems of North-West links golf.
