NEWS RELEASE FROM SGU

Four Scottish golf clubs have been rewarded for their efforts in building a legacy from the 2014 Ryder Cup by being awarded the title of Sky Sports ‘Ultimate Venues’.

St Fillans in Perthshire, Lothians club Pumpherston, Sandyhills in Glasgow and North-east club Inverurie have been selected from the country’s near-600 golf clubs, thanks to going the extra mile to stage Ryder Cup activity and develop the game at local level.

With Ryder Cup fever sweeping the nation ahead of next week’s contest at Gleneagles, clubs across Scotland are hosting numerous events, with the four clubs named ‘Ultimate Venues’ in conjunction with Sky Sports, the competition’s official broadcaster.

Each winning club is to receive a state-of-the-art 3D TV for their clubhouse, ensuring their club is the alternative place to be for those not attending at Gleneagles in person.

The Ryder Cup will also visit the four clubs, offering members and visitors the rare chance to have their photograph with the iconic trophy and attract more golfers to their club for the day.
