258: Course Diaries – The Addington w/ Ryan Noades pt 1
Live from an undisclosed beer garden in South West London, after an 18-hour day, we finally sat down to record this podcast. A Course Diaries podcast with Ryan was always going to be a long one, so this is a two-parter. We'll be releasing Part II early next week. In this episode, we talk about why The Addington is unique, how the club came into the ownership of Ron Noades and before him Moira Fabes, and much more of the history at The Addington, including the golden years when it was seen as 'the Sunningdale before Sunningdale.'

252 – Golfing Politicians
With the recent conclusion of the General Election in Britain and a lively debate between Biden & Trump where the nation watched two men well past the age of 70 arguing over who was the better golfer, we decided to look at golfing politicians over time. In stark contrast to the US, where almost all US Presidents play the game, the UK has a much thinner spread. We talk about A.J. Balfour, Lloyd George, Macmillan, Whitelaw, and Churchill, as well as others like Laddie Lucas, Longhurst, and Tolley. We even look at who would be in our political 4-ball and where we would play!

245 – Course Diaries: Golf De Fontainebleau
Sam and Tom recap their magical day spent south of Paris at the enchanting Fontainebleau. The club is situated on a sprawling hunting estate which is home to one of the biggest palaces in all of France, and pre-dates Versailles by over 500 years. Originally founded in 1909 and laid out by Julian Chantepie, Tom Simpson reworked the course in 1920 and is responsible for much of what remains. Only a few modifications to the routing took place in the early '60s by Fred Hawtree, and the club have recently partnered with Clayton DeVries and Pont to further help develop the course and bring back some more of the Simpson magic. It's a fascinating club, a sensational course, and has a clubhouse that could quite possibly be one of the best in golf! Latest Products [...]
