Woburn Golf and Country Club
- Woburn Golf and Country Club
Woburn Golf and Country Club is located near Milton Keynes in England, about fifty miles north of central London. There are three courses, the "Duke's Course" which opened in 1976, the "Duchess Course", which followed in 1978, and the "Marquess Course", which dates from 2000. The courses are situated amid mature woodland on the Duke of Bedford's Woburn Abbey estate.
The European Tour's British Masters was played at Woburn many times between 1979 and 2002, initially over the Duke's Course, and latterly over the Marquess Course. Another PGA European Tour event, The Heritage, was staged at Woburn in 2004. It has also hosted the Women's British Open, which is one of the women's majors, and other Ladies European Tour events and prestigious senior professional and amateur tournaments.
European Ryder Cup player and PGA Tour golfer Ian Poulter is the club's "touring professional".
