  • Historic Merger Finalised
    Historic merger finalised An update from the Ladies’ Golf Union and The R&A We have great pleasure in writing to inform you that the merger of the Ladies’ Golf Union (LGU) and The R&A has been finalised and will come into effect from 1 January 2017. The merger of the two governing bodies is a historic and hugely exciting step which will enable us to support golf and speak with one voice for all those who play – women and men and girls and boys. A great deal of work has been carried out over the last year to bring the merger to completion and we would very much like to thank everyone who has played a part in the process and particularly the national associations, LGU affiliated clubs, partners and sponsors for the tremendous support we have received. Integration The integration of the two organisations puts us in a better, stronger position to realise our collective vision for growing the game of golf around the world and our combined resources and staff expertise will help us to achieve our shared aims for the development of golf. The completion of the merger is a progressive and important move for the development of women’s golf, including increasing girls’ and women’s participation and encouraging more families to enjoy golf as a recreational activity. Bringing the two organisations together creates a platform that will allow us to develop our aspirations for women’s golf on a global stage and encourage more girls and women to play golf and become members of golf clubs.

  • US Amateur Championship Preview
    History of the U.S. Amateur Championship The U.S. Amateur Championship was born in 1895 due to a controversy. In 1894, two clubs - Newport (R.I.) Golf Club and New York's St. Andrew's Golf Club - had conducted invitational tournaments to attract the nation's top amateur players. Newport's stroke play tournament was won by club member W.G. Lawrence, who triumphed over a field of 20 competitors. The match-play competition at St. Andrews attracted 27 golfers and was won by Laurence Stoddart, of the host club. Both clubs proclaimed their winners as the national champion. Clearly, golf needed a national governing body to conduct national championships, develop a single set of rules for all golfers to follow, and to promote the best interests of the game. With that, representatives from five clubs founded the USGA on Dec. 22, 1894. As a result, in 1895, its first full year of operation, the USGA conducted the National Amateur and Women's Amateur Championship as well as the Open Championship. The National Amateur and Open Championships were conducted at Newport Golf Club during the same week of October and Charles B. Macdonald became the first U.S. Amateur champion. The Amateur Championship is the oldest golf championship in this country - one day older than the U.S. Open. Many of golf’s greatest players had held the U.S. Amateur title. It was, however, longtime amateur Robert T. Jones Jr., who first attracted media coverage and spectator attendance at the Amateur Championship. Jones captured the championship five times (1924, 1925, 1927, 1928, 1930).

Hyndman may have enjoyed nothing more than his chance to share his “I don’t know if I ever beat him in any of our nine-hole matches,” passion for the game with others. Sullivan said. “We played for a soda. He never let me give him the soda, but I don’t know that he ever had to buy me one.” Here was a man who had achieved nearly everything in amateur golf, yet received no greater pleasure than seeing others develop the love for golf as he had decades before.
