Dorset County Golf Union President John Gordon was joined by England Golf CEO Jeremy Tomlinson, to welcome honoured guests and representatives to Came Down Golf Club to celebrate the union’s 100th anniversary. The golf union was formed at Came Down in February 1923, and guests from clubs across the county enjoyed a packed day to celebrate the anniversary.
President of Came Down Brian Hansford unveiled a commemorative stone gifted to the club from the DCGU to mark this special event, while Peter Fry delighted listeners with his entertaining retelling of Dorset golfing history.
Another highlight of the day was a Q&A session with Dorset golfing legend Lee James who reminisced about his Amateur Championship and Walker Cup wins, and playing at the Masters in 1995.
