    Ladybank Golf Club

    Ladybank Golf Club was established in 1879. The course then was 6 holes and designed by Old Tom Morris. 1910 was the first expansion programme when a circular 9 holes was formed. A clubhouse was built in 1925 and this is now the Professional Shop.

    Realising the potential which Ladybank had, the course was purchased outright at a cost of £850.00, the cost being calculated by the number of mature trees on the land!
    This allowed further expansion and the 18 hole course was opened in May 1961. Since then minor changes have taken place in layout and design but the back 9 remains relatively unchanged. A new clubhouse was built in 1971 and course irrigation added in 1975.

    1978 was a landmark year, Ladybank was chosen as a British Open Championship Final Qualifying course. Qualifiers here included Roger Davis (Australia) Sam Torrance, Bernard Langer, Jack Newton and Ian Woosnam.

    Other great players to grace the turf are Jack Nicklaus and Seve Ballesteros (both honorary members), Wayne Riley, Payne Stewart and Des Smythe. More recently Mark Brooks, Bob Lohr and Justin Leonard
