Pennard is one of the oldest, established links courses in Wales having been founded in 1896 and designed by the great James Braid, the Scot responsible for some of the most famous golf courses in the world. It is a classic seaside links course and enjoys a dramatic clifftop setting that affords mesmerising views across Swansea. Pennard joins a the list of the more prominent Welsh courses, the others being Royal Porthcawl, Tenby, Royal St David’s and Celtic manor. The club has played host to a number of top amateur tournaments and has produced its fair share of fine players, including six times Curtis Cup player Vicky Thomas.
