Ever fancied a round of golf before you see a Tiger Woods replica in Madame Tussard’s? Nope neither have I. Not the golf part you understand but posing with wax celebrities just isn’t my bag. But you’d be surprised just how easy it is to cram in a cheeky nine in London. The traditional view of the city is of a grey metropolis however there are several parks, gardens and courses to belie this myth. The guys at worldgolf.com concur. They have produced a guide to what’s on offer claiming, “A round of golf might just be one of the most affordable ways to pass the time in London.” We are always interested in seeing someone else’s take on a subject we have previously visited. All the way back in March this year we sent a hapless bunch of, and lets not mince words here, idiots out to find golfing mecca in England’s capital. With nothing more than an all-day travel card, a set of sticks and a sense of adventure we endeavoured to prove that there is some cracking yet affordable times to be had swinging the wrenches in the home of Buckingham Palace, the Notting Hill Carnival and Jack the Ripper. They navigated the length and breadth of greater London visiting Northwick Park, Richmond Park Golf Club, Finchley Golf Club and Urban Golf just to prove it could be done on public transport. Check out GOLFPUNK 26 to see how they did. For more on this story click here… For a list of English golf courses click here…
