We are getting into some major league golf courses now. We are at the point to where we are splitting hairs just to put together this list.

Royal Liverpool oozes with history. Royal Liverpool hosted the first Amateur Championship back in 1885, and Royal Liverpool was the first to host the Walker Cup back in 1902.

In total, Royal Liverpool has hosted The Open Championship in twelve times since 1897 and recently hosted The Open back in 2014.

As we you might expect, Royal Liverpool has hosted the most Amateur Championship as it has hosted the event eighteen times.

Royal Liverpool has also been the host of the Ladies British Amateur Championship three times and the Women’s British Open back in 2012.
