Four of the Wirral’s magnificent coastal golf courses are to host a new 72 hole amateur tournament open to adult male & female golfers. The inaugural Wirral Golf Classic will be held on the peninsular from 13 to 17
September and aims to become a permanent fixture on the England’s Golf Coast calendar.
Aimed at attracting golfers to play & stay in the area, all entrants will play a round of golf at each of the four participating courses; Caldy, Heswall, Royal Liverpool and Wallasey, with a rest day during the week.
Caldy, former venue of the Seniors’ Championship, boasts stunning views from its cliffs across the River Dee to Wales; slightly further down the river, Heswall was the venue for The R&A’s Junior Championships in 2006 and stages the North of England Under-16 Championships each year; Wallasey, home of the Stableford, is an Open Qualifying venue enjoying beautiful views across the Mersey to Liverpool, and Royal Liverpool is much loved by golfers throughout the world; it has staged the 1st Amateur Championship, 1st Walker Cup, 1st International Golf Match and 11 Open Championships.
