On Monday morning the historic St. Andrews clubhouse reopened after the building underwent the largest renovation in 100 years.
The last significant addition to the clubhouse was back in 1924. When players arrive at the home of golf now they’ll see a bigger building with new, enhanced facilities such as an extended locker room space to offer women’s facilities, a new heritage lounge that displays historic architectural plans of the clubhouse, a new members’ shop, refurbished trophy room and a new golf concierge desk.
The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews is a private golf club with a worldwide membership of over 2,400 members.
“The clubhouse renovation is the most significant enhancement that we have made to the building in 100 years and we are pleased to have made these improvements while retaining its special character and appearance,” said Martin Slumbers, Secretary of The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews.
“All members will now be able to enjoy the use of new and improved facilities which will enrich their experience of visiting and playing golf in St. Andrews.
