Open Competitions

1900

West essex is an historic golf club with a rich heritage dating back to the founding of our club in 1900. We know we have something special here and nothing gives us greater pleasure than to share the enjoyment of our magnificent course with people who may not have experienced it before.

One of the ways in which we can do this is by staging a number of open competitions spread throughout the season aimed at golfers from all walks of life and all abilities. The action generally starts in May with the West Essex London Amateur Open. The London Open Golf Championships will return to West Essex Golf Club for 2019. This year will be see the event grow to 150 players with the South & East region merging for the first time. It will attract the regions’ leading professionals and some top names such as Simon Khan, Oliver Fisher, Raymond Russell, Robert Coles, Mark Davis, Lloyd Kennedy, Steve Cipa to name just a few. The field of 150 players will be playing over 3 days with a cut. We look forward to another great tournament and welcome anyone who would like to watch some great golf. However, the highlight of every summer comes in the shape of the four-day West Essex Festival of Golf, which kicks off in August using the four ball better ball format featuring men’s, ladies, seniors and mixed competitions. We have a great reputation for our high value prizes and superb catering before, during and especially after the golf. You will find details of upcoming events on our website, www.westessexgolfclub. co.uk, together with information about how you can reserve your place.
