TBA Wentworth:
Golf has one of the most glorious histories of any sport still played.
Golf as we know it emerged in Scotland. The Scots were playing golf in its very basic form - take a club, swing it at a ball, move ball from starting point to finishing hole in as few strokes as possible - by at least the mid-15th Century. The earliest known reference to golf comes from King James II of Scotland, who, in 1457, issued a ban on the playing of golf and football (soccer). Those games, James complained, were keeping his archers from their practice.

June: Queen's Cup Polo at the Guards Club, Windsor. The exclusive Guard’s Polo Club opens its doors to polo’s finest. The Queen’s Cup is played in the surrounds of Windsor Great Park and is the highest handicap league competition in the UK.

June Royal Ascot is the most fantastic sporting and social event of the year. Full of British traditions, style and the horseracing is of the most outstanding quality. The surrounding countryside is spectacular and the fashon is stunning. The only place where elegance and eccentricity reach a feverish climax. The week of the year when popularity rises above language and social barriers. Royal Ascot is the most famous race meeting in the world, steeped in history dating back to 1711. Book now for June ASCOT. Best chance to see and be seen at the new high tech racecourse on Thusday Ladies Day of the Royal Ascot Meeting.
