Description: The Metropolitan Golf Club is one of the renowned sandbelt courses of Melbourne and is widely recognised as one of the finest championship courses in Australia. It is located in Oakleigh South, in the city's south-eastern suburbs, approximately twenty minutes' drive from the CBD. Metropolitan Golf Club shares its origins with Royal Melbourne Golf Club, which was founded in 1891 as Melbourne Golf Club, with the Royal title being granted in 1895. When the original course at Caulfield was turned over to housing, Royal Melbourne moved to a new course at Sandringham.[1] Members who remained formed the Caulfield Golf Club, and in 1906 purchased a farm in Oakleigh with a two-storey house. In 1908 they moved to the new course, designed by club member J B MacKenzie, renaming their club as The Metropolitan Golf Club. In 1960, several holes were lost in order to build a school, with replacement holes designed by Dick Wilson being built on adjacent land. 1930Australian OpenFrank EyreNew South Wales1930Australian PGA ChampionshipJock RobertsonNew South Wales1930Australian AmateurHarry HattersleyNew South Wales1934Melbourne Centenary TournamentJimmy ThomsonUnited States1936Australian OpenGene SarazenUnited States1936Australian PGA ChampionshipBill CliffordVictoria1936Australian AmateurJim FerrierNew South Wales1937Australian Women's AmateurB.
