07/10/2024
On this day in 1982... Old Thorns Golf & Country Club opened! ?
? Happy Birthday to us - 42 years old today and don't we look good for it? (It must be the eye cream from the spa ?)
Did you know: The official opening of the golf course on 10th July 1982 was endorsed by a competitive four-ball between Isao Aoki, Seve Ballesteros, Jack Nicklaus and reigning Open champion, Bill Rogers. Aoki shot 69 to win, and the match scorecard was framed. Today they are proudly displayed at the entrance to the Pro Shop!
Thank you to John Wood from the Wood family for sharing with us these wonderful photos.
