1867 – 1927 – 2027
A living system of participation across clubs and communities.
1867 – The First Medal
Women at St Andrews organised and played a structured club medal competition as part of a regular Saturday routine.
1927 – A National Network
By 1927, this had grown to over 1,000 affiliated clubs and 100,000 women golfers.
2027 – A Shared Opportunity
October 2027 marks 160 years of women’s golf participation — a moment to make this system visible across clubs worldwide.
One Day of Play + One Page of History
Clubs are invited to take part by running a women’s competition and sharing a simple history of women’s golf at their club.
