Hamilton Golf and Country Club
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hamilton Golf and Country Club is located in Ancaster, Ontario.
The club began in 1894.[1] Renowned English golf architect Harry Shapland Colt designed 18 of the current 27 holes in 1914, with Canadian golf architect Robbie Robinson adding a third nine in 1974.[2]
The club has hosted four Canadian Opens. The course was lengthened and renovated in the late 1990s, in preparation for the recent Opens. The current Chedoke Golf Club, now a municipal course, was the original ground of the Hamilton Golf and Country Club.
Hamilton Golf and Country Club has been long regarded as one of the top golf courses in Canada, currently ranking second on Canada's list of best golf courses by Scoregolf magazine.
