Considered by many to be one of (of not THE) best golfing regions in the world, the Melbourne Sandbelt is renowned for being a true golfer’s paradise. Some of the best players in the world, including Tiger Woods, Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Gary Player, Greg Norman, Rory McIlroy and others, have all publicly proclaimed their love for the remarkable courses that make up the Sandbelt. And rightly so…the courses are so good that, in recent years, the region has hosted The Presidents Cup (twice), The World Cup of Golf (twice), and it will play host to the Australian Open in 2020 and 2022.

And now, you can play the courses that have captured the heart of the world’s best golfers.

THE COURSES

The four-round, 72-hole 2020 SGA Sandbelt Classic event will be staged from September 27 – October 2. And the host clubs are among the most exclusive in Australia, featuring two of the top 20 golf courses in the world!

Get a load of this mouth-watering line-up of courses you will play:

Your week begins on the #1 golf course in Australia and one of the top-10 golf courses in the world – The West Course at the highly-exclusive Royal Melbourne Golf Club.

The second round will be played at Kingston Heath Golf Club (ranked #2 in Australia, #18 in the world), which hosted The World Cup of Golf in 2016 (to rave reviews) and will host the 2020 Australian Open.

After a well-deserved rest day (where you can have a break or play an optional round on a selection of other Sandbelt golf clubs), the event’s third round is at the beautiful Metropolitan Golf Club, ranked #13 in Australia and the host club of the 2018 World Cup of Golf. Last, but certainly not least, the final round is at the venue that has hosted more than 30 Australian Masters tournaments, Huntingdale Golf Club, ranked a solid #40 in Australia.

ACCOMMODATION

With an event of this magnitude and elegance, it is only fitting that our accommodation is equally impressive. In 2020, the SGA Sandbelt Classic has partnered with the new Shadow Play by Peppers, where we will stay for the five nights of the event. Shadow Play is a 3-iron from Melbourne’s bustling Southbank Promenade and a short walk to the Melbourne CBD and shopping precinct as well as the Crown Casino entertainment complex.
