Royal Queensland Golf Club was established in 1920 at Hamilton and was granted its Royal Charter in 1921 by King George V, with the King's official letter of notification signed by Winston Churchill.

Dr Alister MacKenzie was persuaded to visit Brisbane in 1926, and contributed his renowned design wisdom to a number of holes. He said; "Royal Queensland already compares favourably with some of the British Championship courses. It should have a very great future, and will be an excellent test of golf."

OUR COURSE

The Royal Queensland Golf Club was founded in 1920 by a group of prominent citizens of Brisbane who obtained a lease of land occupying 420 acres (in today's terms 170 hectares) - since reduced to around 240 acres (97 hectares) - fronting the Brisbane River in an area known as Parker Island.

The original course was designed by Carnegie Clark, the Australian Open Champion of the day, and was opened by the Governor-General Lord Forster in 1921. It is said that he had a handicap of +3.

The services of the eminent Scottish golf architect Dr Alister MacKenzie were later retained during his visit to Australia in 1926.
