The John McIntosh Medal Trophy
This annual trophy was played today in ideal conditions, sunny with a light southerly breeze. The winner was Roland Dell, who narrowly missed winning the competition six years ago. He was followed by Matthew Goodridge, second, and Lee Dawson, third. Club Captain Lee Simpkins is seen presenting the trophy to Roland Dell.

We promise it landed there.
We saw it.
We just can’t tell you where it is. 😂

🔎 CAN YOU SPOT THE BALL?

Zoom in… squint… put your glasses on… ask the dog… phone a friend… 😂
Think you’ve found it?

👉 Copy/save the photo
👉 Put a DOT 🔴 where you think the ball is
👉 Send it back to us!

📧 Or email your masterpiece to [email protected]

🏆 What’s the big prize?
Absolutely nothing. 😂

No new driver
No luxury holiday
No new car
Not even a sleeve of golf balls!

Just the enormous satisfaction of knowing that your eyesight is considerably better than most golfers looking for their ball in the rough! 🤣

Look after your Butt.
⛳ Enjoy the Golf. Enjoy the Views. Help Us Protect Them. 🌿

We hope you’re enjoying some wonderful summer golf — with some of the best views in Ventnor! ☀️🏌️

With the long spell of dry weather, our course and the beautiful surrounding countryside are tinder dry, so we’re asking everyone to take a little extra care.

🚬 If you smoke, please make absolutely sure cigarette butts are fully extinguished before disposing of them safely.

'One small spark can light up the world' in this instance could light up the countryside please help avoid the fire!

Thank you for helping us look after our course, our wildlife and the beautiful landscape we all enjoy. 💚

We really appreciate your care and support.

🏌️‍♂️⛳ Ever fancied playing golf on a desert course without the airfare to Dubai? 🏌️‍♂️

Well, now's your chance!

The fairways at Ventnor Golf Club are currently so dry that you could be forgiven for thinking you've landed somewhere in the Middle East rather than on the beautiful Isle of Wight! 🌞🐪

Despite the sun-baked conditions, the course remains in good shape and is open to everyone. Whether you're a regular visitor, a returning friend, or looking to play Ventnor for the very first time, we'd love to welcome you.

📱 Simply book and pay online and you're ready to play https://ventnorgolfclub.co.uk/green-fees-online-booking/

A couple of friendly reminders:

🏌️ Please take care replacing divots – the ground is as firm as a Sunday roast left in the oven too long!

🔥 If you smoke, please ensure all cigarette ends are fully extinguished before disposing of them. The course and gorse is extremely dry and we all want to keep it safe.

🌊 And remember, while Dubai may have the desert, we've got something even better – the most spectacular golf course views on the Island, with stunning sea vistas and scenery that make every round special.

So come and enjoy a round in the sunshine. Just don't be surprised if your ball gets a little extra run! 😄

Ventnor Golf Club – where the fairways are fast, the views are unforgettable, and the welcome is always warm. ⛳🌞🍻

Jim Lawrie Memorial
Very sadly we have had to cancel the Jim Lawrie Memorial Open planned for this Saturday 11th.

However the exciting news is that Ventnor Golf Club is one of the best places to take in the breath-taking panoramic views of the famous Round the Island Yacht Race as hundreds of boats pass by beneath us.
There really is no better place to enjoy this spectacular event!
Come along and play and watch
